Testimonials
“I’ve never had therapy before in my life and was going through a difficult time.
Being quite stressed about seeing a therapist at first, I consider myself very lucky and grateful to have met Claire. We “matched” energies instantly. I felt comfortable and heard, which allowed me to dive in pretty deep (which is what I wanted) straight away, with no fear of being judged. It was a journey, tough at times, but so interesting and freeing. I’ve come out of it with more compassion and trust within myself, and I’m very thankful to Claire for that.” – P.
“I was having therapy with Claire for almost a year, and it completely changed my view of therapy as I found it hard to open up to previous therapists and felt like Claire offered a truly safe environment to talk about what I was going through, without rushing me. Each session felt cathartic and by the time we stopped sessions I felt much more hopeful for the future and learned to have compassion and patience with myself.” – E (student)
“I feel very lucky to have discovered Claire… I feel a sense of both mental and physical relief after every session and I always feel safe to be entirely open with her. She provides a calm, judgement free space. She has a peaceful, calm and rare quality of effortless empathy and compassion delicately balanced with her ability to hold powerful space for her clients. Claire takes genuine care and I highly value her therapy service”. – S.A
