Claire Roberts, NCPS

Claire Roberts is a psychotherapeutic counsellor who uses a blend of client-centred and cognitive approaches to help people through difficult times. She holds the NCPS credential and brings five years of professional experience to her practice. Claire aims to create a warm, respectful space where people can feel heard and start to make practical changes.

Her work often addresses stress, anxiety and low mood. She also supports people coping with grief, sleep problems, relationship and family concerns, and life changes such as career shifts. Addictions, anger and compassion fatigue are included among the areas she covers.

Claire tailors conversations to each person. She combines Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas, and also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques when useful. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building coping tools and setting achievable goals.

Her style is interactive and grounded. Claire aims to help clients strengthen confidence and motivation while remaining non-judgemental and sensitive to individual experience. She emphasises practical steps as well as reflecting on past experiences when that helps progress.

People interested in practical support for midlife concerns, career decisions or rebuilding after loss may find her approach helpful. She encourages anyone ready to try therapy to take the first step and explore whether her way of working fits their needs.

How Claire's approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead, helping them to feel understood and to find their own solutions. It can be useful for building confidence and making sense of life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy encourages simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can support stress and grief work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most useful. She adapts methods over time, combining talking, practical tasks and reflective exploration to suit the client's goals and preferences.

Because session formats are not specified in the biography, please confirm the current options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or letting someone choose whether to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals often find online work helps maintain continuity of care and supports regular progress without having to rearrange distant commitments.
