About Claire
Claire Reynolds offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or life changes. She writes short, direct sessions for those who want steady, honest conversation and help working through practical problems.

Background and approach
Claire pays attention to how everyday routines, relationships and beliefs shape how you cope. Her work is grounded in client-centred therapy, which means the person is central to the conversation and pacing. She combines this with elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, using simple exercises to spot patterns and try small changes between sessions.
Sessions aim to feel practical and relevant to day-to-day life. Claire has four years of professional experience working with a broad range of issues. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Claire meets people in a relaxed, non-judgemental way and focuses on helping them build clarity and manageable steps forward.

Approaches that shape online sessions
Client-centred work places the person’s experience at the heart of each session. The therapist listens closely, follows your pace and reflects what matters most to you so you feel heard and can make decisions about next steps. This approach is useful for people who want space to talk through feelings and to be supported while they make sense of a situation.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. Sessions using CBT often include straightforward exercises to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes that can ease anxiety, low mood or unhelpful habits. It suits people who want practical tools they can use between appointments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. This collaborative process allows techniques to be adapted as things change over time.
Online therapy offers a range of ways to meet. Video calls let you see facial cues and use visual tools. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to fit counselling around busy days or to reflect in writing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
