About Claire
Claire Jean Seymour is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and other challenges that make day-to-day life harder.
Claire listens without rushing. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. She uses conversations to help people notice patterns that keep them stuck and try different ways of responding.
Her approach draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps people test unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to clarify values and take workable steps towards them.
In sessions Claire offers straightforward techniques for handling worry, urges, low mood and relationship conflict. She also addresses issues such as grief, intimacy concerns, body image and problems linked to long-term illness or caregiving. Codependency and communication difficulties are part of her focus when they show up in a person's story.
People can expect a conversational style with practical exercises between meetings. Claire asks about what is getting in the way and what matters most, then maps out small, achievable changes. She accepts clients from outside the UK and works in English.
Costs vary with location and are charged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients are invited to use the site matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Claire uses therapy methods online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect what matters most. This can suit people wrestling with uncertainty, avoidance or low motivation.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for anxiety, low mood and addictive behaviours. It often includes short exercises to practise between sessions.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns. It can help people understand why they keep putting others first or struggle with trust and closeness.
Claire treats finding the right approach as a shared task. She talks through what a person hopes to change, tries methods that match those goals, and checks how they fit. That collaborative process means the plan can change as needs and preferences become clearer.
