Free to Be Counselling
My name is Claire.
I began training as a Counsellor in 2012. Since then, I have completed a Post-Graduate university qualification in Psychotherapy as well as achieving BACP Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist status. I have experience of Counselling and Psychotherpy in a range of settings and am currently employed as a counsellor at a local university.
I’m a Mum of 2. I previously worked as a High School teacher for over 16-years’ and have also worked within the Care and Charity sectors. All these experiences help me to understand and connect with others in my counselling work. That said, I want to listen and understand what life is like for YOU?
I offer Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy which means I combine different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit your individual needs. The relationship between us is what holds the different strategies together, so that the approach we take is something we both feel is a good fit for you. Sometimes that might include creative tasks, activities and experiments in our work together. I’ll will be interested in the emotions you experience and believe emotions have much to teach us about what is you need and want. I’ll support you as a individual unique human, meeting you in your pain. I won’t shy away from the things you find difficult. I’ll be interested in your positive traits and behaviours, and your own ability to make decisions that feel a good fit for you.
