Claire Reynolds, BACP

Claire Reynolds welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start. She introduces herself plainly and aims to make the first step easier. Claire offers a calm, listening presence and helps people put their concerns into words so they can make practical changes.

She draws on four years of experience working with common and complex difficulties. Typical issues she sees include anxiety, stress, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief, and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem. Claire also supports people facing life changes, caregiver strain, and health-related worries such as cancer or end-of-life matters.

Her work is grounded in Client-Centred Therapy, which means the person sits at the centre of the session. She aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space and follows each person’s pace and priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behaviours.

Claire is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. International clients are not currently accepted.

Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with scheduling offered via a short matching questionnaire and the Start Therapy button. Claire seeks to help people notice their strengths, try new ways of coping, and find clearer direction for the life they want.

How Claire's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the person’s lead so they can understand themselves better and decide what matters most. This approach can help with low mood, self-esteem, grief and family-related concerns by giving space to talk things through and notice personal strengths.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and then test practical changes. It is often used for anxiety, sleep and mood difficulties, and for building new coping strategies to handle daily stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will discuss options with each person and adapt methods to fit their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need less travel on workdays, but the exact arrangements should be checked when arranging sessions.
