Claire Tristram, BACP

I have only had a few sessions with Claire up to now, But from the moment I began talking with her, I felt heard, valued and emotionally validated.

My whole life has begun falling into place for the better and I couldn’t recommend her professionalism, insight, willingness to go above and beyond (whilst staying patient at every step), and expertise enough.

Working with Claire has been a truly transformative experience so far. From the very beginning, she created a safe, welcoming space where I felt completely at ease. She listens with genuine compassion and without a trace of judgment, which has helped me open up and explore thoughts and feelings more deeply than I ever expected.

Claire has an incredible ability to gently probe and ask the right questions at the right time, guiding me to important insights and encouraging personal growth. The worksheets she shares are thoughtful and practical, often sparking meaningful conversations that carry over between sessions.

She’s also highly professional: always prompt, responsive, and respectful of my time. Claire’s balance of empathy, insight, and structure has made her the ideal therapist for me, and I feel very grateful to be working with her.
