Hi, I'm Claire and I'm a qualified person-centred counsellor offering online and phone counselling to adults.
Are you feeling anxious or struggling?
- This could be through a bereavement, or difficulties in a relationship;
- Perhaps health issues such as chronic illness, disability or menopause have affected how you are feeling;
- Maybe work is causing you stress, or you have been made redundant.
Do you feel misunderstood or not heard?
- Maybe you don’t have somewhere you feel supported to be yourself and to speak freely;
- Perhaps you feel like you don't have anyone to talk to who understands;
- You may need a place to be heard and to explore your feelings.
How can I help?
- I offer a warm, non-judgmental, and empathic space where you can feel safe to explore your feelings and work through your experiences;
- This can help develop your self-awareness and confidence;
- I can support you in finding acceptance of what has happened in your life, or in making changes.
No matter what your situation is, counselling can provide a space which is confidential, supportive and affirming so that you can work through what matters to you at the pace that suits you, to help you through even the most difficult times.
As a person-centred therapist, I won’t direct you or give you advice. This way of working holds you at the centre, in the belief that only you are the expert in what is right for you. Guided by you, together we can look at and work through what is troubling you.
I've been in therapy myself, and I understand that it's not always easy to make the first step and approach a counsellor. I try to make this as straightforward and reassuring as possible.
