Counselling is a very effective form of ‘talking therapy’ that can help with a wide variety of issues.

It is a well established and clinically proven form of psychological help that can help to address the following issues:-
- Abuse
- Anxiety
- Children
- Bereavement
- Confidence
- Depression
- Eating Disorders
- Employment worries
- Family
- Identity
- Loss
- Managing Change
- Mental Health

- Personal Development
- Self Harm
- Stress
- Terminal Illness
- Self Esteem
- Suicidal feelings
- Relationships
Counselling is an opportunity for you to talk to a professional therapist to help you understand yourself and your situation. This might involve reflecting on your life experiences and your responses to new ones. The counsellor will also help you to identify what changes in life style could reduce any distress you feel, and to support you as you consider how to do this.
Depending on what you are able to share, the counsellor works with you to explore how you can progress towards living in a way that is more satisfactory and resourceful for you. Although the counselling offered is primarily non-directive and non-advisory, in some situations you may want more positive guidance from specific information and advice. The counsellor will suggest how this might be obtained.
Counselling takes place in a private setting so that you can feel free to share your concerns in confidence. In the initial session, you will be able to talk to the counsellor to clarify the areas that you want to cover together. The counsellor will suggest the number of times you might need to meet to achieve your objectives. Each session is 55 minutes, normally at the same time each week. Depending on how things work out, you may wish to take short breaks in the process to work on issues that have emerged for you, returning later when you are ready to do more work.
Claire Caldow – Therapeutic Counsellor & Coach
Therapy that invites growth beyond barriers — guiding you through life’s changes and new beginnings, towards renewal and vitality.
I’m glad you’ve found your way here. You might be navigating a big change, carrying the weight of grief or trauma, feeling overwhelmed by daily life, or searching for a deeper sense of clarity and direction. Whatever has brought you here, you don’t have to face it alone.
I work with adults and young people, offering a calm, compassionate space to pause, breathe, and feel truly heard. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you.
Alongside talking therapy, I offer creative and sensory approaches that can help you process emotions, regulate your nervous system, and open fresh perspectives. These ways of working often resonate with those who may feel deeply, experience the world in rich layers, or who are drawn to intuitive or imaginative exploration.
This is a space to find calm, clarity, and reconnection — and to move forward feeling empowered and resilient.
Fertility and Family — I have additional training and experience supporting adults through fertility challenges, pregnancy, and transitions through parenthood.
The support I offer is grounded in both professional training and lived experience, trauma informed and neuro affirming. I hold an MSc in Psychotherapy & Counselling (Contemporary Creative Approaches); Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling; BA (Hons) in Psychology. I’m an accredited member of the BACP and trained as a Fertility & Family Therapeutic Coach, and Theraplay™ Practitioner — equipping me with a range of approaches to meet you, or your family, where you are and support you in the ways that feel most helpful.
