Psychotherapy, Clinical Supervision & Training
Relational, reflective work for people who value psychological depth
Hi - I'm Claire. If you’re here looking for a psychotherapist, I want first to acknowledge the courage and care that goes into that search. Reaching for therapy is often a significant emotional and financial step, and one of the most important elements is finding someone who feels like a good fit. For me, the quality of the therapeutic relationship — and the way we attend to and work within that relationship — is central to meaningful and lasting change.
I offer psychotherapy for adults, as well as clinical supervision and training for practitioners and organisations. My work overall is grounded in humanistic and psychodynamic thinking, and shaped by a deep interest in how emotional experience, identity, creativity, and the wider contexts of our lives come to shape our inner worlds.
Whether working face to face or online, I aim to create spaces that feel thoughtful, emotionally alive, and well-contained — places where difficult experiences can be explored with care, curiosity, and respect.
Four ways to begin
I provide individual psychotherapy for adults seeking depth, understanding, and change — particularly where feelings or relationships feel complex, intense, or hard to hold alone.
I offer a reflective, relational supervisory space where complexity, uncertainty and emotional impact can be explored safely, with care, curiosity, and respect.
Psychologically informed training integrating theory, lived experience, and reflective practice, tailored to professional and organisational contexts.
I collaborate with partners from the music industry, education, and academia. Find out more information about this work here.

Relational and integrative
My overall approach is relational and integrative, drawing on humanistic and psychodynamic thinking alongside existential, somatic, and occasionally, some cognitive behaviour therapeutic approaches. I pay close attention to the therapeutic relationship itself, as well as to the wider social, cultural, and relational contexts shaping a person’s lived experience.
I am a trained EMDR therapist and have done additional training in sensorimotor approaches. For me, we are a multiplicity of parts, our thoughts are important and so is our somatic experience and embodiment.
I aim to offer a space that is emotionally engaged and reflective, where there is space for all parts of the mind and body — one where complexity can be held without being rushed or reduced.
