About Claire
Claire Jean Seymour is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people managing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties and the effects of trauma and abuse. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about hard things and begin to make changes. Claire holds NCPS as a credential and has seven years of experience in practice.
She works in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions are tailored to each person’s situation and paced to match what they need. Claire listens for the practical patterns that cause pain and helps people try small, manageable changes between meetings.
Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ways of working to focus on relationships and trust in the therapy room. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills may be used where emotional regulation is a concern.
Claire supports people dealing with grief, self-esteem struggles, intimacy problems and the stresses of caring for others. She also works with those facing bipolar mood challenges, eating or sleeping difficulties, ADHD-related issues and codependency. Her practice includes attention to chronic illness, pain and other complex, overlapping problems.

How different approaches guide online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without being driven by them and to focus on values-based actions that matter. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress and when people feel stuck and want a clearer sense of purpose.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical tools to shift patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems and unhelpful habits.
Claire aims to work together with each person to choose the best fit. She will discuss goals, preferences and past experiences to pick approaches that suit the individual. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques and adapting what works best over time.
If you prefer online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins or longer sessions as needed. Some approaches lend themselves to homework and skill practice that translate well to remote work, while others focus on relational patterns that are still possible to address online.
Registered or accredited professionals often find online therapy helps people access consistent support and build daily routines around their goals. Claire will discuss practical arrangements and what to expect during the initial matching and scheduling steps.
