About me
Hi, I'm Claire, I'm an accredited Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) therapist, clinical supervisor, and trainer, with over seven years' experience supporting adults and young people through some of life's more complicated moments.
I specialise in working with people who experience intense, overwhelming emotions. Perhaps your emotions seem to go from 0 to 100 in seconds, relationships feel like a constant rollercoaster, or you find yourself stuck in patterns of behaviour that you know aren't helping but can't quite seem to change.
You might be struggling with self-harm, suicidal thoughts, impulsivity, or simply feeling like your emotions are running the show. Whatever brings you here, you don't need to have a diagnosis, or even know exactly what's wrong, to ask for help.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside my clinical work, I've spent several years leading specialist DBT services, supervising therapists and delivering DBT training. I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in DBT, an Advanced Diploma in CBT, a Diploma in Integrative Counselling, and accreditation with the Society for Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (SfDBT) and the British Association of Psychotherapy and Counselling (BACP).
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
