About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I'm Claire, an integrative psychotherapist working one to one with adults, both remotely and in-person, from my office in County Durham.
I believe there are many ways to understand human psychology and wellbeing. My practice gently integrates talking therapy with somatic, creative and holistic approaches which support the nervous system, such as breath, creativity, movement and mindfulness. I work in collaboration with clients, offering my commitment building a therapeutic relationship where thoughts, feelings and behaviours can be explored so you can better understand yourself, reconnect with yourself and feel safer in your body and your life.
Practice description
Alongside my private practice, I have worked in the voluntary sector for over twenty years, supporting individuals who have been affected by domestic abuse and sexual violence.
I have a BA in Counselling and an MA in Psychotherapy Studies, which focused on working wildly and creatively. I'm also qualified in mindfulness, somatic therapy and breath work facilitation.
I am a neuroaffirming therapist and have additional training in working with neurodivergent clients. My practice is inclusive and non-pathologising and I am an LGBTQ+ ally.
My first session
I offer a free, no obligation, initial consultation via telephone, which usually lasts around fifteen minutes which give you an opportunity to tell me more about what brings you to therapy, share any expectations or goals you may have for your sessions and ask any questions you may have about me and how I work, so you can get a sense of whether I am the right therapist for you.
