About Claire

Claire Scarlett works with relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, anxiety, depression and life changes using an approach that centres the person's own experience and strengths. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience in the UK.

Claire helps people talk through family conflict, separation and blended family challenges. She also supports those facing grief, trauma, difficulties with sleep or eating, and the impact of neurodiversity such as autism or ADHD on everyday life.

Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas to look at close relationships and how they affect behaviour. She uses client-centred methods that let the person set the pace and focus of sessions. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when people want practical ways to manage anxiety, low mood or unhelpful thinking patterns.

Sessions are practical and conversational. Claire listens to what matters to each person and helps them identify small, manageable steps they can try between sessions. She works with questions about career, self-esteem, social anxiety and finding better ways to cope with life changes.

People who choose Claire can expect clear, straightforward discussion about goals and options. Her years working in the UK inform how she responds to family problems, divorce and parenting strain. She offers counselling in English and accepts international clients, with arrangements confirmed at booking.

How Claire uses talking therapies online

Attachment-based work looks at close relationships and patterns in how people connect. It helps when relationship history affects trust, communication or parenting responses. Client-centred counselling focuses on the person's priorities and lets them set the pace and topics for sessions. It suits people who want a conversational space to sort out feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, uses simple techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together they will decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted over time to fit what is most useful.

Confirm the available session formats before booking as the original biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video, for example by using audio for lower bandwidth or choosing a format that fits a work break. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists normally discuss practical arrangements at first contact to find what will work best.
