Claire Latham
Compassionate counselling for change and loss
About Claire
Claire Latham is a counsellor who helps people navigate loss and life changes. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and self-esteem. Claire holds BACP as a professional credential and brings four years of practice to her work.
Claire creates a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what feels overwhelming. She encourages people to set the pace and brings practical breathing and grounding techniques for immediate relief. Sessions are conversational and led by the client’s priorities rather than a fixed agenda.
Background and approach
Her background includes four years working with common life challenges such as isolation, difficulty with communication, guilt and shame, and finding life purpose. Claire uses a client-centred approach that places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. This means she listens closely and reflects what she hears to help people make sense of their feelings.
In practice she aims to help people build resilience and self-compassion. Conversations will often explore patterns of thought and feeling and look for small, actionable steps to improve day-to-day coping. Claire supports people aiming to reconnect with their values and to find clearer direction after a change or loss.
People who prefer a warm, steady presence rather than directive advice may find her style helpful. Sessions are designed to be straightforward and practical, with attention to emotional safety and real-world next steps.

How Claire’s Client-Centred Approach Works Online
Claire uses client-centred therapy online, which focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels understood. This approach helps people process grief, anxiety, relationship worries and changes by making space to tell their story in their own words.In sessions she offers straightforward calming techniques and practical coping steps alongside empathic listening. The work is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together what to focus on, and they adjust the approach as needs and goals become clearer.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different lives and schedules. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation for people who prefer seeing a counsellor, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written support when typing feels easier than talking.
Registered and accredited professionals can adapt these formats to suit how clients prefer to work. The goal is the same across formats - to build understanding, develop coping strategies and help people feel steadier in day-to-day life.
