About Claire
Claire Roberts is a NCPS psychotherapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, mild depression, grief and loss, self-esteem, motivation and related concerns. Claire describes her work as collaborative and interactive, aimed at helping people build coping tools and clearer ways of relating to themselves.
She often helps people who are coping with life changes, parenting strain, relationship difficulties and family problems. Sessions describe practical ways to manage sleep issues, anger and compassion fatigue as well as longer-standing concerns such as attachment difficulties, dissociation and emptiness. Claire's practice notes include additional areas like codependency, blended family issues and caregiver stress.
Her work brings together client-centred ideas, cognitive-behavioural methods and psychodynamic thinking. That means conversation is central, with attention to patterns of thought and how past experiences influence current feelings. She also uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support small, achievable change.
Claire emphasises a respectful, non-judgemental approach and aims to help people strengthen their voice and priorities. In sessions she focuses on practical coping skills, clearer communication and gradual steps towards things people value. The emphasis is on steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.

How sessions work
How Claire uses different approaches in online work
Claire combines client-centred ideas with cognitive-behavioural and mindfulness methods in her online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify their own goals and values; it helps when someone needs a respectful space to make sense of difficulties. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect mood and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns; it is often useful for anxiety, sleep problems and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept up in them, which can help with stress and emotional reactivity.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Claire will discuss options and agree a way forward with each person based on their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative choice may shift over time as priorities change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when people need them. Registered or accredited professionals often use this flexibility to arrange appointments that suit work, caring commitments or other routines.
