I currently have availability on Wednesday evenings and Friday daytime.

Hi, I’m Claire, life can be tough right? As a Humanistic Counsellor I believe we are all inherently good and possess the capacity for self-healing and personal growth. However sometimes we may feel stuck, alone or overwhelmed not knowing where to turn.

You will find me non-judgemental, warm and accepting. It is very important to me that you feel safe, comfortable and that you can trust me so that you can truly be your whole self and bring whatever is troubling you. We will work at a pace that you feel comfortable with. I will help you explore your thoughts and feelings, your past and present, how these might be impacting on you now and explore ways we can help you change this. Not only do I consider your psychological issues but take a holistic view, considering your creative aspirations, philosophical beliefs, and the complex interplay of your unique life experience.

The type of counselling I offer is welcoming and empathic, giving you the chance to unlock your potential and navigate through life's challenges with increased self-awareness and self-trust.

I hold a Bsc in Humanistic Counselling and trained at the Metanoia Institute, who are renowned for their specialism and robust counselling training. Prior to working in Private Practice, my counselling experience has included working for Mind, in the NHS IAPT Service and Sutton Womens Centre. I invest in regular ongoing training as part of my continuous professional development (CPD)   

I offer online therapy via video call and face-to-face sessions in private comfortable therapy rooms close to Banstead High Street. Sessions are 50 minutes long and take place on a weekly basis on the same day and time, this gives you consistency in knowing the regular support is there for you. I offer both short-term and long-term therapy, the number of sessions you have is something we can discuss together

I offer a free 10-minute phone call for you to ask any initial questions you have and for me to find out what you hope to get from therapy. It will also give you an idea of how I work and if I am likely to be the right therapist for you.

If you then decide to book a first session, we can start to explore your key issues and how we may work on these together.
