Hello, I’m Clare
I’m a qualified psychotherapist, passionate about offering a supportive space to explore challenging times.
Why start therapy?
We all encounter challenging periods in life that can be distressing. Sometimes, seeking support from someone outside our immediate circle – a therapist – can be incredibly valuable.
Therapy can be an empowering process. It provides a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. You'll gain a clearer understanding of what truly matters to you, distinguishing between your authentic self and the influences of others and past experiences.
Following periods of stress, change or transition, we may experience lingering effects. This can manifest as unexpected anxiety, heightened reactivity, or feeling unlike ourselves.
You might find yourself grappling with recurring memories or stories that continue to impact you. You may experience unexplainable physical sensations or persistent stress that presents in disruptive ways, even when things appear outwardly fine.
Together, we can navigate these challenges and gain a deeper understanding of yourself, fostering greater acceptance of life's complexities and cultivating greater resilience.
Therapy thrives when you approach it with an open and committed mindset. This includes a willingness to be honest and genuine with your therapist, a curiosity to explore new perspectives, and a readiness to challenge your existing beliefs and behaviors. Without these qualities, the therapeutic process may not be as effective, potentially leading to a less fulfilling experience.
My Core Values as a Therapist.
I believe that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn't always work when it comes to therapy. In our sessions, we'll explore your individual experiences, circumstances, and who you are as a person. By drawing from a range of therapeutic approaches, we can find what best supports you during this time.
Therapy begins where you are, at your own pace. I believe that true change occurs within a safe and supportive environment where you feel respected and understood. This often takes time, patience, and a focus on cultivating inner safety and rest.
Why is this approach different to other therapy?
I believe we are made up of interconnected parts of mind, body and emotions. As well as talking, I use techniques to move towards a more embodied personal experience.
My approach is beneficial as it provides
An Improved Mind-Body Connection: Our bodies store emotions and experiences. Embodiment practices help you become aware of these physical sensations and how they relate to you.
Trauma Resolution: Trauma can often be stored in the body as physical tension or unexpressed emotions. Techniques like finding regulation in your breath, small movements, and somatic experiencing can help release these stored tensions, facilitating healing.
Increased Self-Awareness: By paying attention to your bodily sensations, you gain a deeper understanding of your emotions, reactions, and behaviors. This self-awareness is essential for change.
Improved Emotional Regulation: Together we will find practices that can help you regulate your nervous system, reduce stress and anxiety, and cultivate a greater sense of calm and well-being.
