Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support

Claire draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and on addressing how past experiences affect present responses. Cognitive and behavioural strategies help people identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts while building practical skills to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and manage stress. Trauma-informed approaches concentrate on understanding the impact of traumatic or abusive experiences and on stabilising reactions before working through distressing memories or patterns of avoidance.

She also incorporates relational and family-focused work to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and rebuild intimacy where needed. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process - Claire works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that suit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts the work as therapy progresses.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or to access support from a different location. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, continuity of care across distances, and the ability to use methods that best match a person’s comfort and practical needs.
