About Claire

Claire Scarlett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps those dealing with family and relationship strain and the effects of trauma.

Claire believes people know their own story and brings a respectful, listening approach to each session. She encourages clients to notice strengths and small steps that lead to change. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to make that step easier.

Background and approach

Her practice includes support for parenting worries, blended family issues and separation. She also offers help with neurodiversity concerns such as autism and Asperger syndrome, and with attention differences like ADHD. Practical day-to-day coping strategies are part of sessions alongside space to reflect.

Claire uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She draws on attachment work to look at close relationships and how they affect feelings. Cognitive behavioural ideas help people test and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.

Mindfulness and client-centred ways of working are used to build awareness and a steady therapeutic relationship. Sessions aim to be straightforward and down to earth. Claire supports people through grief, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem and career doubts.

She focuses on what someone wants to change and on tools that fit their life.

Sessions & fees

Approaches you can use online

Claire offers work based on attachment-focused ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques. Attachment-based work looks at how close relationships shape feelings and reactions; it can help when relationships cause stress or when people repeat painful patterns. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers simple experiments and tools to shift unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is a shared task. Claire will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will choose which methods to try. She adapts the mix of approaches as progress and needs change so the work fits the individual.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person work, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility so people can make therapy work around their life.
