About me
My name is Claire and I'm a qualified person-centred counsellor. I became qualified in 2020 and I'm an accredited member of the NCPS. At certain times within life, it can become challenging and difficult leading to us feeling stuck. At times like this, I think we shouldn't face it alone. Within my role as a person-centred counsellor I'm here to focus and listen within a safe non-judgemental setting. Within this safe space, I will give my full support and patience allowing you to work through your thoughts and feelings. It's important to me that you do this at your own pace. Allowing us to build a therapeutic relationship based on trust. Once this is achieved and you feel comfortable to address any issues you are experiencing, I will help empower you to find your own solutions to enable you to move to a more positive mindset.
