About Claire

Claire Kleiner is a therapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom who uses a client-centred approach. She focuses on helping people work through stress, anxiety, grief and relationship issues. Claire also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, depression, addiction concerns, and challenges linked to identity and sexual orientation.

She adapts sessions to each person's needs and aims to create a calm, respectful space for talking. Claire has experience supporting neurodivergent people and those in the LGBT community.

Background and approach

She explains things plainly and keeps the conversation focused on practical next steps. Her work often addresses everyday difficulties like sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem and struggles with intimacy. She also helps people facing major life changes such as divorce, career shifts or bereavement.

Additional areas of focus include attachment or abandonment concerns, blended family issues, and long-term health challenges. Claire uses the principles of Client-Centred Therapy, which means she listens closely and follows each person's pace. Sessions are shaped around what matters to the individual rather than a fixed agenda.

This lets people set goals and work toward them in ways that feel manageable. With four years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she offers tailored support for a wide range of worries. Claire welcomes people from different backgrounds and works with international clients via online formats.

Ways of working Claire names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client‑centred care delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens without setting the agenda, reflects what is said and helps people find their own way forward. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety, depression and processing difficult life events because it focuses on the person's strengths and choices.

Claire tailors sessions to the individual and will work collaboratively to find the right approach. Together they will review what feels helpful and adjust pace, focus and methods as needed. Deciding how to work happens through conversation and regular check-ins so the plan stays relevant to the client's goals.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter, simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer typed communication, need brief daily support or want a lower-commitment way to reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family life and other commitments.
