Claire Meyrick
Person-centred counsellor blending practical techniques
About Claire
Claire Meyrick is a counsellor who blends several therapeutic approaches to match each person's needs. She holds NCPS and brings four years of practice offering calm, straightforward support. Claire focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns.
She also works with grief, parenting pressures, career strain and compassion fatigue. Her style is practical and person-centred. Sessions begin by listening closely to what matters to the individual.
Claire uses tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to tackle unhelpful thoughts and from attachment-based and psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns in relationships and feelings.
Background and approach
People can expect a warm, non-judgemental space to talk through problems and build clearer coping steps. Claire treats clients as the experts in their own lives and helps them identify strengths they already have. Therapy often mixes short-term problem-solving with deeper reflection when that suits the person.
She offers ways to manage everyday pressures, reduce anxiety, and rebuild confidence. Practical exercises and collaborative goal-setting are used alongside reflective conversation. The aim is to find approaches that fit each person’s pace and priorities.
To begin, Claire asks people to describe what they want to work on and chooses methods that feel doable. The focus is on making small, steady changes that lead to clearer thinking and better day-to-day functioning.

How Claire's approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how past relationship patterns affect current feelings and behaviour and helps people understand their close relationships. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting therapeutic relationship while the person leads the pace and topics. Cognitive behavioural therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tests simple practical experiments to change reacting and feeling.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That might mean short-term solution-focused steps first, then deeper reflection from attachment or psychodynamic ideas if needed.
Online sessions can be held by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different routines and needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when lower bandwidth or hands-free time is needed, and messaging or live chat suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make therapy more flexible for people balancing work, parenting or other commitments, while still allowing therapists and registered or accredited professionals to work collaboratively on goals and practical steps.
