Her sessions are built around listening and reflecting back what matters to each person. Mindfulness practices are used when they help reduce reactivity and support calmer focus. The work aims to help people identify small, useful steps that feel manageable in daily life.

People can expect straightforward, respectful conversation and practical attention to current problems. Sessions give time to talk through painful experiences and to consider next steps. Claire prefers to help people find their own answers rather than impose solutions.

Person-centred and Mindfulness approaches for online therapy
Claire uses a person-centred approach that focuses on being heard and understood. This approach means the therapist offers empathic listening and helps people make sense of their own thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for relationship issues, grief and recovery after abuse.She also uses mindfulness-based techniques to help people notice thoughts and sensations in a calm way. Mindfulness work can support anxiety, stress and difficulties with reactivity by encouraging steadier attention and small practical exercises.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Claire will discuss what feels most relevant and try different ways of working to match a person's goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and paced according to what the person can manage.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lives. Video calls let people see facial expressions and body language, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins or when writing feels more comfortable. These options offer flexibility so therapy can happen around work, caregiving or travel commitments.
