Because life doesn't move in straight lines
When life changes in ways you never expected, or no longer looks the way you hoped it would, it can be difficult to know where to begin.
You don't need to know exactly what you need before reaching out.
Often, it simply helps to have a conversation. That is where I can help.
Coming soon
Taking bookings and enquiries from 5 November 2026
I’m currently preparing to open my practice and will be accepting new counselling and coaching clients from November 2026.
Hello, I'm Claire
I'm a qualified integrative counsellor and MBACP member. I offer a space to slow things down, make sense of what's happening. You don't need to arrive with an explanation or even a clear idea of what you want to achieve.
My particular areas of interest are grief, bereavement and loss, particularly the less visible losses that can accompany separation, relationship change, career changes and other life transitions. I also work with work-related stress and burnout, perfectionism, loneliness and relationship difficulties.
I don't believe there is a hierarchy in how difficult life can feel. What matters is what something means to you.
How I can help
Life can change in an instant, and sometimes it changes gradually, almost without you noticing. You may be living with the illness or death of someone important to you. You may be coming to terms with the end of a relationship, questioning your career, adjusting to a life transition, or carrying responsibilities that have quietly become too much to hold on your own. Sometimes there isn't one defining event at all. There is simply a feeling that things aren’t the way you want them to be.
I offer counselling and coaching for people navigating change, loss and the challenges of life and work.
