Claire Wilson
Practical, relational therapy for everyday struggles
About Claire
Claire Wilson offers straightforward support for people coping with stress, anxiety and low mood. She introduces a calm, conversational approach that helps people work out what they want to change and how to get there. Claire's tone is practical and curious, aiming to make therapy feel like a helpful conversation rather than a list of tasks.
She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape present-day patterns. That can help with intimacy issues, communication problems and feeling stuck in old ways of relating.
Background and approach
Claire also draws on client-centred ways of working so the person she is talking with leads the pace and focus of sessions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy methods are part of her toolkit for tackling anxious thoughts and unhelpful routines. These techniques are used alongside narrative approaches that help people reframe difficult memories and make sense of life changes.
Motivational interviewing is available when someone wants support making practical changes and staying on track. Claire has four years of experience working with a range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain and challenges tied to chronic pain or illness. She also helps with relationship questions, commitment worries, jealousy and issues around self-esteem and isolation.
Sessions are offered in English and take place remotely. Claire holds the NCPS credential. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules appointments that suit them.

Approaches for online relational and practical work
Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses, helping people understand patterns in intimacy and communication. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person's priorities, so the pace and content of sessions follow what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy offers practical tools to spot anxious thinking and change unhelpful behaviours, which can help with stress, low mood and worry.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Claire will discuss options during early conversations and tailor methods to a person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where therapist and client decide together which tools to try and how to measure progress.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions can fit a short break or when less bandwidth is available, and messaging suits regular check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments while keeping the focus on the work itself.
