Client Testimonials
People come to therapy for many different reasons. With permission, a few clients and families have shared their experiences of working with me. Details are changed to protect confidentiality.
Parent of 15‑year‑old with autism and anxiety
“We contacted Dr Clare 18 months ago. Our 15‑year‑old daughter has high‑functioning autism and ADHD and experiences severe anxiety in large groups and new environments. Through regular sessions, Clare has helped her understand her diagnosis and learn practical ways to manage her emotions in different situations. Their conversations are private and confidential, and we see a clear positive difference when they have regular contact. She has gone from sitting in the car crying before exams because of the environment she was going into, to being able to focus on the normal worries of GCSEs, like ‘Have I revised enough?’. We are so grateful for Clare’s support.”
Adult with bipolar diagnosis
“Clare was an invaluable part of my recovery after a manic episode with psychosis. Her approach was tailored to my needs, balancing deep professionalism with a warm, personable manner. I genuinely don’t believe I would have made this level of progress without her.
It has been seven months since finishing therapy and I still use her techniques every day to maintain my wellbeing. I am incredibly grateful for her lasting impact.”
Young person with OCD and social anxiety
"Clare has supported our son through anxiety and OCD with exceptional expertise and empathy. Her guidance has been instrumental in helping him navigate many challenges, enabling him to thrive and successfully complete his degree. Clare has been truly amazing for him, and we cannot recommend her highly enough.”
