I work Monday to Weds.

I am a fully qualified and experienced Humanistic therapist in private practice in West London.

I offer a warm, friendly, non-judgemental approach where you can truly be yourself.  Humanistic therapy believes that we all have within us the capacity to achieve our full potential. I feel that we all need someone in our corner who understands us, who see's that potential. Someone we can trust. Building that trust is a priority for me as I understand how much courage is needed to take the first steps into therapy.

Perhaps you already have a good understanding  of what troubles you. You might be feeling anxious, depressed or that you're not coping. You might have relationship issues or feel stuck. Maybe the reason is just out of reach.

Whatever it is you bring to therapy, we will explore it together to help you gain clarity and perspective.

My background is in the creative arts industry. I have much experience working with dancers, singers, choreographers and artists. 

I use a holistic approach to my work to enhance wellbeing and self awareness. My particular interest is in the mind-body connection, nervous system health and the restorative nature of mindfulness practices and breathwork if that is relevant for you.

The relationship between myself and my clients is based on trust , authenticity and respect. This is at the heart of my practice.

Qualifications:

I have a BSc (Hons) degree in Humanistic Counselling. (Middlesex university)

A Diploma from Metanoia Institute.

I continue my professional development regularly with courses on issues such as anxiety, trauma, nervous system health, depression, imposter syndrome and procrastination.

I offer in person therapy in Fulham, online and by the phone. I can work on a short or long term basis.

Testimonials.

"I am incredibly grateful for my work with Claire and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled therapist. From the very beginning I felt completely comfortable with her and our sessions have always been a safe supportive space where I can be open and honest.

Claire has helped me navigate significant life changes, including a big move abroad, bereavement, family dynamics, divorce and the journey of getting re-married. She has also provided invaluable support in understanding and managing PMDD. Throughout all of this, her empathy, insight and guidance have been instrumental in helping me process emotions, gain clarity and develop healthy coping strategies."                                                              

"Claire has helped me identify the patterns that have been holding me back in a safe space with no judgement. She has also helped me grow in self awareness and compassion for myself. She comes with a whole range of skills and knowledge, but also her manner and tone meant that our sessions were a safe haven for me in times of distress.

Claire also understands the specifics of an artists life which can be really hard to communicate to people outside the industry. It means she recognises the heightened self expectations that comes with an artistic life and the challenges this has on our mental health."

I offer a free 30 minute introductory conversation online.  This is for you to ask any questions, find out how we might work together and if we are a good fit.
