Children’s testimonies

Claire has been a great help to our 12 year old daughter after a family bereavement. I highly recommend her and the kind caring relationship she quickly made with us all was wonderful. Lots of great strategies and ideas helped our daughter and in turn us, process our grief. Worth every penny. thanks Claire x

A huge thank you for helping my daughter. she has had so much to cope with. The difference is amazing due to such professionalism and empathy shown. 
I recommend Claire to anyone who really is struggling during the difficult time.

Adult Therapy

My specialist area is working with clients who have experienced trauma and abuse in their life helping them to be able to move forward within their life and gain emotional stability. I connect and relate to what is important to you as a individual, and give you the opportunity  to talk in confidence about any difficulties you are facing. I specialise in adult mental health and trauma (including depression, anxiety,  work related stress, personality disorders, bipolar, stress, , sexual violence, Eating disorders, ex military PTSD), and LGBTQ+ health.  I've also done extensive work around bereavement and dementia care

Home Visits

Home visits may be beneficial for a number of reasons and as i don't have a therapy room this is how I see clients face to face. I visit clients within a 6 mile radius of Rugby, Warwickshire,  There must be a suitable room in which to meet, with minimal distractions.
