About Claire
NCPS. 5 years' experience. Claire Roberts is a counsellor who works with stress, anxiety, grief and bereavement, self-esteem, career concerns, addictions and relationship and family difficulties. She uses a pluralistic approach combining Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Psychodynamic ideas to help people build coping skills and make practical changes.
Claire treats issues such as sleeping problems, anger, depression and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with attachment problems, abandonment, codependency, body image and communication difficulties. The first part of her work is to listen to a person's experience and agree clear goals together.
Sessions focus on understanding what keeps problems going and on learning skills to change unhelpful patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify thoughts and behaviours that reinforce anxiety or low mood. Client-Centred techniques help people explore feelings and gain clarity about what they want.
Psychodynamic ideas are drawn on to look at past relationships and patterns that repeat over time. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with stress and with sleeping. Motivational Interviewing is used when people are working through changes such as addictions or difficult health decisions.
Claire practises in the United Kingdom and offers counselling in English. Her work is described as collaborative and interactive, with a focus on helping people notice small changes that add up to lasting difference.
How Claire uses therapeutic approaches in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people clarify feelings and make decisions without pressure. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical steps to reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve sleep.Choosing an approach is part of the work. Claire will discuss options with each person and together they will decide which methods suit the client’s needs and goals. The plan can change as the work progresses and is shaped by the person’s preferences.
