Approaches Claire lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also uses mindfulness techniques to help manage overwhelming thoughts and strong emotions. Mindfulness practices can teach simple breath and attention exercises that reduce reactivity and support clearer thinking during stressful times.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Claire will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, then adapt the style over time. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as needs change.
Online therapy gives practical options: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions for times with low bandwidth, live chat for shorter check-ins and text-based messaging for ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring duties and travel, and allow people to continue therapy when schedules or locations change.
