Claire Field, BACP

Claire Field is a person-centred psychotherapeutic counsellor who focuses on building a warm, non-judgemental relationship. She uses empathic listening and respect to help people feel heard. Claire’s approach is grounded in treating each person as an individual rather than a set of symptoms.

She draws on 13 years of practice and membership of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, BACP. Claire often supports people who have experienced relational abuse, whether in childhood or as an adult, and she also helps with grief, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns including jealousy. Sessions are conversational and paced to the client’s needs.

Claire believes counselling gives space to work things through and to try out new ways of being. She aims to help people make sense of painful experiences and find steps that feel manageable. Practical tools and reflective conversation are used depending on what the person wants.

Alongside one-to-one work, Claire supervises other counsellors and has written the Rainbow Therapy Tools guides book series available on Amazon. Her background supports a steady, supportive presence in sessions and a focus on what the client chooses to bring.

Claire works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Prospective clients are asked to use the Start Therapy process via the site to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.

How client-centred and mindfulness approaches work online

Claire’s person-centred approach focuses on providing a supportive, non-judgemental space where the client leads the conversation. This way of working helps when people want someone who will listen and reflect back what they are feeling, which can be useful for relationship concerns, trauma and grief.

Mindfulness therapy involves simple attention and breathing practices and learning to notice thoughts without getting swept away by them. It can help with anxiety, stress, low mood and building steadier emotional responses in day-to-day life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Claire will discuss what matters most to the client and try different ways of working to find a good fit. This is a collaborative process that centres the client’s goals and preferences.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting counselling around work, caring commitments or travel, and for reducing time spent getting to appointments. Other practical benefits include easier access if mobility or distance is an issue, and the ability to choose a shorter check-in when energy or bandwidth is limited.
