About me

I am a qualified Person-Centred Counsellor and a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), and I abide by their code of ethics and professional standards.
I came to counselling through my work as an Holistic Therapist of 20 years, I hold a degree in Health Science with Complementary Therapies in addition to qualifications in Aromatherapy, Reiki and Crystal Therapy and I like to be able to offer my clients an holistic approach, through mind, body and spirit, as each effects the other.
I have a private practice and have clients with eating disorders, relationship issues, bereavement among others but I specialise in counselling survivors of Domestic Abuse (physical, mental, emotional, sexual and historic).

Being with my clients, as they have journeyed through some difficult situations, showing them empathy and honesty, has supported them to break through some their obstacles to a happier more fulfilled life and future.

Clare is an amazing therapist, during my time with Betterhelp she supported me with all my concerns 100% and was always available to respond to messages with great advice. I would recommend Clare to help with the treatment of anxiety.

Clare has been extremely professional with me but also kind, warm and funny and helps me open up about my feelings.

Clare is amazing! My previous therapists have all felt like they were reading from a script. I feel like Clare listens, understands and offers me a different perspective, it comes from her expertise and her honesty. I do feel like I am talking to a sister or a friend, someone who remembers and takes into account all factors that have been mentioned in our calls and makes connections. I really enjoy our calls. Thank you Clare!
