About Claire

Claire Meyrick works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, grief and parenting strain by combining practical talking therapy approaches and reflective work. She is registered with NCPS and has four years' experience in therapeutic practice.

Claire uses a mix of approaches to suit different situations. She draws on client-centred methods to listen closely and help people make sense of their feelings. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify patterns of thought and try small behaviour changes that reduce day-to-day distress.

Her psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape current reactions. This can help when people notice repeated patterns in relationships or responses to stress. Solution-focused elements are used when someone wants shorter-term, goal-based work to manage a specific problem or decision.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Claire encourages people to describe what is happening now, what they want to change and what has helped before. She offers straightforward suggestions and actions to try between sessions when these are useful.

Her approach is collaborative: the person and counsellor decide together what to focus on and how to proceed. Claire aims to make the process clear and manageable, especially for people taking the first step into counselling.

She works in English and is based in the United Kingdom. For those who wish to begin, she asks clients to follow the site's matching and booking steps to arrange a first session.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on relationships and how early connections shape current feeling and trust. It helps when people want to understand recurring patterns in how they relate to others and to build steadier ways of relating.

Client-centred counselling prioritises careful listening and reflecting back what someone says. This approach is helpful when someone needs time to make sense of difficult feelings and decide what matters most to them.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses straightforward exercises to test new ways of thinking or acting. It is useful for tackling patterns that keep anxiety or low mood going.

Choosing an approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be discussed together. The therapist will work with the person to agree which methods best match their goals and preferences, and may combine approaches as needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose whether to be on camera or use audio only depending on what suits them that day.
