About Claire
Claire Jean Seymour is a counsellor who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and relationship problems. She also supports those facing depression, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. Claire is listed with NCPS and has seven years of experience in practice across the United Kingdom.
Her style is warm and straightforward. Conversations are tailored to each person's needs and paced to feel manageable. She aims to listen without judgement and to help people find clearer ways to handle day-to-day pressures and difficult emotions.
Claire draws on several practical approaches, including cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance-based work. In sessions she uses tools to spot unhelpful thinking, practise alternative responses and focus on values that matter to the client. She also brings elements from attachment-focused and client-centred methods to strengthen relationships with self and others.
People come to her for a wide range of concerns, from sleep and eating issues to anger, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She also supports individuals coping with natural or human-caused disaster and other crisis-type events. Her approach aims to be flexible so that plans are useful in everyday life and not just in the therapy room.
Taking the first step feels hard for many people. Claire works collaboratively to make that step clearer, offering practical strategies and steady support while clients work towards their goals.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with big life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain problems and testing new ways of responding to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and choose or blend methods to suit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative decision and can change as progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not possible. It also gives the chance to use practical exercises and homework between meetings so learning carries into everyday life.
