About Claire
Claire Jean Seymour is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She uses a respectful and compassionate approach to help people take the first steps towards change. Claire holds NCPS and brings seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
In sessions she begins by listening to what matters most to the client. Conversations focus on practical goals and small, achievable steps.
Background and approach
Claire adapts the pace and direction to each person's needs rather than following a rigid programme. Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns, from grief and intimacy issues to sleep and eating difficulties. She also offers support around career changes, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges.
This variety has shaped a flexible style that combines problem-solving with emotional support. Claire draws on several approaches to suit different situations, including trauma-focused work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-informed methods and cognitive behavioural ideas. She explains strategies plainly and helps people try new ways of coping between sessions.
People who meet with her can expect straightforward language, steady encouragement and a focus on what will help day to day. The aim is to build skills and understanding so clients can manage current difficulties and feel more able to move forward.

Approaches that translate to online therapy
Claire uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people process distressing experiences and reduce the ways those memories interfere with daily life. This work focuses on safety, pacing and helping people tell their story in ways that feel manageable. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values and take small actions toward a more meaningful life. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress and long-term coping. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build steadier ways of relating and regulating emotions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Claire works collaboratively to pick methods that suit each person's situation, goals and preferences. She will discuss options, try different techniques and adjust as progress is reviewed together.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and therapeutic exercises. Phone sessions can use less bandwidth and fit more easily into a work break. Live chat or messaging allows shorter check-ins and ongoing written reflection between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life for people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
