Relationship Specialist & Perfectionism Researcher
Helping individuals and couples build healthier relationships with themselves and others, alongside specialist support for perfectionism, pressure and high standards.
How can I help?
Perfectionism, pressure and high performance
When doing well never feels quite enough, it can be difficult to switch off, trust yourself or enjoy what you have achieved. I help you understand these patterns and develop a more flexible, compassionate approach to work and life while keeping the ambition that matters to you.
Relationships and couples
Supporting couples and individuals to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, navigate emotional disconnection, deepen intimacy and manage relationship challenges with greater understanding, compassion and connection.
Workplace well-being and professional development
Drawing on over 20 years of experience in high-pressure professional environments, I also support professionals and organisations through psychoeducation, workshops, counselling and psychologically informed approaches to well-being, perfectionism, burnout prevention, psychological safety in the workplace, and sustainable performance.
Clinical hypnotherapy
Working with clients to manage anxiety, stress, phobias, habits, emotional regulation, enhance performance, eradicate unhelpful patterns and create meaningful and lasting change.
My approach
My approach is warm, collaborative and grounded in psychological research. I offer space to understand yourself and your relationships, explore patterns that keep you stuck, and develop more helpful ways forward.
Whether we are working on relationship difficulties, perfectionism or the pressures of professional life, I tailor our work to your needs, values and goals with curiosity, compassion and practical support.

“Claire helped me give up a habit I had been struggling with for over 20 years. I wondered how effective online therapy would be but I found I was able to relax more in the comfort of my own home. Claire is so supportive, calm and caring and really helped me to understand that I wasn’t ‘giving up’ smoking but gaining health, vitality and a more effective way of coping with my anxiety.”

“I had been putting off facing my problems with self-esteem and anxiety for years. COVID-19 and working from home gave me the time and motivation to look for help. I love the convenience of online therapy, especially when I was feeling isolated and alone during lockdown. Claire helped me to see how my intrusive thoughts were stopping me from doing so many things I used to enjoy and helped me build my confidence up so I am now looking forward to making new friends and, hopefully, finding a relationship after many years alone.”
