About Claire
Claire Burton is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression. Claire also works with people on relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She creates time in sessions for people to talk through what is most worrying them. Claire listens for patterns in thinking and behaviour and helps clients try small changes to see what works in daily life.
She has additional experience with autism and Asperger syndrome, BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture, dissociation, panic and panic attacks, personality disorders, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), self-harm, and sexual assault and abuse. She also supports young adults and people exploring self-love and identity questions.
Sessions aim to identify immediate coping steps as well as longer-term ways to manage stress and mood. Claire keeps an open, non-judgemental tone and encourages practical experiments between sessions to test new approaches. She explains tools plainly and checks in about how they fit with each person’s life.
Her work suits people who want direct support with day-to-day difficulties and specific problems linked to relationships, trauma, or mental health. People interested in starting are invited to read the online therapy options and complete the matching questionnaire to book a first session.

How her approaches work in remote sessions
Claire uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address immediate problems and longer-term patterns. One common approach focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood; this helps with panic, stress and everyday coping. Another approach centres on processing distress from trauma and abuse through careful, paced conversations that aim to reduce the impact of painful memories and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts techniques as they go. Decisions about which methods to try are made together and reviewed regularly to see what is helping.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find remote work helps them maintain continuity of care alongside other commitments.
