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

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
