Approaches that help with thoughts and everyday habits

Claire uses integrative, humanistic methods that combine practical techniques with a person-centred focus. Integrative work means she draws on several evidence-based techniques to fit what a person needs; this often includes simple cognitive tools to notice and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behavioural strategies to change everyday habits.

Her humanistic emphasis places the person’s experience at the centre. This helps people build self-awareness and self-compassion while working through difficult feelings and life transitions. Together the clinician and client decide which techniques feel most useful based on the client’s goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Claire works collaboratively to explore options and adjust methods as therapy progresses so the work fits the client’s needs and preferences.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online or in-person options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow check-ins during a work break or after childcare. It can also let people use shorter or more frequent sessions when that suits everyday life.
