About Claire

Claire Latham is a counsellor who focuses on helping people navigate loss and big life changes. She uses a warm, person-centred style to create a space where people can speak openly and feel heard. Claire holds BACP accreditation, and she brings four years of practice to her work in the United Kingdom.

She supports people dealing with stress and anxiety, as well as grief after bereavement or the end of a relationship. Claire also helps with low self-esteem, overwhelming life transitions, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. She pays attention to everyday problems such as communication difficulties, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.

Sessions are shaped by each person’s needs. Claire listens without judgement and follows the priorities a person brings to the room. She offers practical calming techniques to reduce immediate distress alongside conversations that help make sense of difficult feelings.

Her core approach is Client-Centred Therapy, which centres on creating the conditions for people to find their own answers. In practice this means the client leads the pace and focus while Claire provides steady, non-directive support and reflective listening.

Over time Claire works with people to build resilience and clearer coping strategies. The aim is to leave sessions feeling more grounded and better able to manage everyday stresses. If you are unsure what steps to take next, she invites you to consider a first conversation to see if the way she works feels like a fit.

Client-centred support and working online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on offering a non-judgemental, accepting space where the person leads the conversation. The aim is to listen, reflect and help each person find their own insights and ways forward. This approach can help with grief, anxiety, self-esteem and the uncertainty that follows major life changes.

In sessions Claire also offers simple, practical calming techniques to reduce immediate distress. These hands-on strategies sit alongside the person-centred work and can be helpful when someone needs quick ways to manage stress or overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Claire will work with each person to decide what feels most useful, matching techniques and the tempo of sessions to the individual’s needs and goals. She encourages open discussion about what’s working and adjusts the way she works as the relationship develops.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that suits them better. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use person-centred approaches, often find online work practical for ongoing emotional support.
