More about Claire

18 years' experience
Female

In a trusting collaboration, I support my clients in facing difficult truths, discovering their own resources, and finding new ways of thinking and acting. 

I believe that sustainable change can only occur if it is driven and shaped by the individuals involved. To initiate this development process, I use methods that actively draw on experiences and perceptions. 

My approach is systemic and open to what is visible and tangible in the moment. My work is grounded in a love for life and humanity in all its facets.

As a certified psychologist and alternative practitioner for psychotherapy, I bring 25 years of consulting experience within and outside of organizations to the table. I have experience in supporting clients with relationship problems, overload and stress, family conflicts, professional difficulties, suffering from their own family history, life crises, self-esteem issues, and much more. I also have 18 years of experience in counseling and coaching executives.

I have a wide range of methods at my disposal and am not tied to any one school, so I can flexibly adapt our approach to your needs in consultation with you. My clients tell me that they appreciate my combination of warmth, liveliness, and depth. See if it's right for you. I look forward to hearing from you!

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
