How these approaches can work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and life changes when someone wants to build a steadier day-to-day routine.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It offers practical exercises to reduce worry, manage mood and change unhelpful habits over time.
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach can help people understand intimacy issues, trust and communication in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use. She adapts techniques together with the client rather than applying one fixed model.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a person. It can also let someone take part from a quiet place, avoid camera use if preferred, or choose sessions that match their day-to-day schedule.
