My psychotherapy and coaching approach, whilst underpinned by theory and research, is warm and non-judgmental. I believe that humor and creativity are core aspects of successful therapy and coaching. I journey with my clients as they develop a deeper understanding of themselves. Helping them to address issues that are getting in the way of their desire to live with more purpose and meaning. My practice is underpinned by a philosophy that believes wisdom and knowledge can be achieved through self-examination.
Both therapy and coaching are a collaborative process, and I am committed to providing you with a therapy and coaching space that is safe, confidential, and non-judgmental.

Coaching has had a positive impact on my self confidence. I immediately established a rapport with Clair and found her very easy to talk to. She encouraged me to bring my whole self to each session and we explored together self efficacy and awareness and how I had the tools to adapt to changing circumstances in my work place and in my personal life. This was achieved through realistic goal setting which empowered me to connect with my authentic self. Now I have more self compassion. I allow myself time to really explore how I am and if I need to adjust or change something which no longer benefits me. l am looking to the future while remaining grounded in the knowledge that I can achieve my goals in my own time and if I need help, it's okay to ask.

I am loving my Existential Coaching with Clair, which couldn't have come at a better time, at age 58. I really feel immediately, in each session, that Clair "gets me", before I do, precisely, allowing me to explore myself, and my behaviours deeply, to access and work on what works, what doesn't. Thank you, I look forward to every session!

I was apprehensive before going to Clair. However, I was immediately put as ease and able to take my time talking. Clair creates a very safe enviroment, listens well, is compassionate and kind, and did not judge me or make me feel my issues were not important. I would strongly recommend Clair and her sound counsel.
