Hi there my name is Claudia! I am a counsellor working within the UK and have been practicing as a counsellor for 3 years now.
This may seem very young in the therapy world but I assure you with a MSc in Counselling at Bangor University and a range of client experience I have a lot to bring to the table in the counselling world.
I have been trained in an integrative approach meaning I use theories such as person centered, cognitive, behavioral and psychodynamic approaches within the counselling sessions, but mainly i conduct the sessions in a person centered way meaning I can create a safe environment in which you will feel comfortable to describe your struggles/ life to me.
I understand the first step of coming to therapy is very difficult and I believe that this step is to be made when you are ready and I can be here to support, comfort and allow you to explore these feelings in a non-judgmental and secure environment. I am aware that the rule 'one size fits all' doesn't apply in therapy and that is why I work fluidly so that you can have the best experience and we can create a good therapeutic relationship.
I have experience working with; Weight, Body Issues, Trauma, Rape, Sexual Abuse, Anxiety, Depression, Childhood Issues, Children, Relationship Issues, ADHD, Autism, Greif, Bereavement and Suicidal thoughts.
I see therapy as going to the gym but for the mind - I look forward to meeting you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
