About Claire

Claire Latham is a counsellor who focuses on helping people find their way after loss and during life changes. She works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and low self‑esteem. Claire holds BACP as a credential and practises from the United Kingdom.

Claire takes a gentle, person-led approach. Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual. She listens without judgement and encourages people to lead the conversation so their priorities guide the work.

Background and approach

Practical calming techniques are part of the sessions. Claire uses simple exercises to help soothe the body and settle strong emotions. These tools are often used alongside talking to give immediate, usable relief between sessions.

She also helps people untangle communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness and questions about life purpose. The focus is on building resilience and clearer ways of relating to oneself and others. Work is paced to match what each person can manage.

Claire aims to create a steady, supportive space where people feel seen and heard. Together with the client she looks at options for coping, small steps for change and ways to improve everyday wellbeing. The emphasis is practical and compassionate rather than directive.

Person-centred care and online options

Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and giving the client control of the conversation. It helps when someone needs space to work through grief, anxiety or changes in life without being directed by the therapist. The therapist aims to reflect understanding and help clients find their own solutions.

Claire blends this person-centred stance with practical calming techniques during remote sessions. That combination suits people who want emotional support along with simple tools to manage distress between appointments. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - Claire will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs and adjust the plan as things change.

Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people meet face to face when visual contact feels helpful. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is preferred. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection or when typing feels more comfortable. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
