I've been working with Clarinda for a couple of months and can honestly say that I have never been as comfortable speaking to anyone else! She is easy to speak to and very attentive. She remembers the small details and makes one feel valued. Would highly recommend her.

I am a qualified therapist with 12 years experience. I have worked with a broad and diverse range of clients, from bereavement to mild and severe mental health issues, a range of addictions, deep rooted trauma and childhood issues.
The sessions are purely for the client and I work to keep you at the centre of the therapy at all times, providing a space for you to feel safe and contained and as comfortable as possible, to explore what brought you to counselling, which is a crucial part of the counselling journey; to feel comfortable enough.
Each person's journey is very personal and unique and I work to offer focus, structure and assist you develop a better understanding of yourself on a deeper and/or healthier level, exploring your issues/concerns to be able to work your way through them.
It can be daunting, scary and a brave thing venturing into counselling, I aim to ground those fears, support you through your process, so you can feel safer along the way. Also, working to help you feel focused and in control of your journey.
I believe in autonomy and empowering the individual, to feel able to make better decisions, feel more sure of themselves and capable.
I can work with all timescales given and can guarantee my honesty of what can be worked through within a given time for your own well-being.

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.

Clarinda is the best! The most attentive and sensitive therapist I’ve ever had. And I’ve had had many. Such a lovely person who deserves the best.
Clarinda is simply amazing and by far the best therapist I've ever had. She is incredibly kind, caring, attentive, and compassionate and always makes me feel heard and understood. She has helped me tremendously with facing my anxieties and has given me tools to grow my self-confidence. She also checks in on me frequently and makes me feel very supported. I couldn’t recommend her more.
I have been talking to Clarinda for a couple of months now and I very much appreciate her help. She is extremely compassionate and she provides great insights and useful advice.
