Claudia Castiglione

Claudia Castiglione is a counsellor who focuses on helping people through loss, trauma and relationship struggles. She works from the view that each person knows their story best and brings strengths to the work. Claudia offers direct, compassionate support as someone takes the first steps towards change.

Claudia uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat across relationships. She helps people notice how early experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. This can be useful for issues like attachment concerns, abandonment worries and repeating relationship problems.

She also draws on trauma-focused approaches to help people process upsetting events. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and build practical coping skills for anxiety, dissociation and stress. This work is often used with people managing trauma, abuse or difficult life transitions.

Internal Family Systems is another strand of Claudia's practice. That approach helps people understand inner parts - the protective or wounded parts that influence choices. It is often used for self-esteem, emptiness, shame, and to support recovery from addictive or compulsive patterns.

Claudia has four years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, which is listed as her credential. She works with a wide range of concerns including grief, intimacy-related issues, depression, ADHD and eating concerns. She accepts international clients and offers appointments from the United Kingdom.

How Claudia applies therapeutic approaches online

Psychodynamic therapy looks at repeating patterns in relationships and feelings. Claudia uses this to help people see how past experiences influence current choices and emotions, which can be helpful for attachment issues and repeated relationship problems.

Trauma-focused therapy aims to reduce the impact of traumatic events and teach coping strategies for symptoms like anxiety, dissociation and intense stress. In sessions the work often involves pacing difficult memories and building practical tools to manage strong reactions.

Internal Family Systems helps people identify inner parts - such as a self-critical part or a protective part - and learn to relate differently to them. This can support work on self-esteem, emptiness, addictive behaviours and complex emotional states.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Claudia will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and together they will decide which combination of methods to try. The work is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find this flexibility helps them maintain regular work towards their goals.
