About Claudia

Claudia Faulkner-Walsh works on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and depression, and issues around identity and intimacy using a client-centred, emotionally focused way of working. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years of experience working with people from diverse backgrounds in the United Kingdom.

Claudia uses client-centred therapy to help people talk through what matters to them. That approach focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which looks at patterns in close relationships and how emotions shape those patterns.

Common themes she supports include parenting strain, blended family issues, communication problems, commitment and infidelity concerns, and the emotional effects of prejudice or discrimination. Claudia also works with people dealing with postpartum depression, young adult questions, career shifts, and sleep difficulties. She includes work on self-esteem, guilt, shame and finding life purpose.

Her sessions aim to help people recognise feelings and make practical steps they can try between meetings. Conversations may cover coping strategies for day-to-day stress and ways to improve communication in close relationships. Claudia offers a straightforward, conversational style and focuses on what the person wants to change.

Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and giving space for people to say what matters to them. It aims to make the counsellor's responses reflect the person's own thoughts and feelings, which can help with stress, low mood and self-esteem concerns.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and the feelings that underpin them. It can be useful for relationship difficulties, intimacy issues and for people coping with grief or past hurt.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will help identify which methods suit the person's goals and preferences through discussion and shared planning. This is a collaborative process and may change as needs evolve.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join from different locations, which can help if they live abroad or have unpredictable schedules.
