Hello! I’m Claire (she/her) I believe that therapy should feel warm and safe, and that as a therapist it’s never my job to tell you what to do or how to live. I am here to support you and to provide a time and space to talk about anything and everything that matters to you.

I am a queer therapist, specialising in working with people within the LGBTQ+ community. Therapy can be a great way to give yourself the time and space, to process and work through your experiences and emotions. It can also be a place to develop coping strategies and make the changes you want to make. I believe in working with people as individuals, in a way that works for them. I will work alongside you, to help you explore and navigate your issues, experiences, current situations and the things that you may be struggling with.​​ ​​
