Claudia Brooker , BACP

Claudia Brooker is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety and life changes. She works with issues such as depression, addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and support around parenting and career pressures. Claudia communicates in English and French and practices from the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Claudia uses a mix of well-known approaches to tailor sessions to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on what is happening now and practical steps that can be tried between meetings. She pays attention to early attachment patterns, life story themes and present-day emotions to understand how problems started and how they continue.

Her style emphasises listening first and then working together to set clear goals. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with changing unhelpful thoughts and routines. Emotion-focused methods are used when relationships or intense feelings are central concerns.

Claudia has six years of experience in the field and has supported people facing trauma, burnout and compassion fatigue. She also offers help with conditions such as ADHD, bipolar, eating and sleeping difficulties, and body image struggles.

People who want flexible contact options can choose video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging. Fees vary by location and the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Claudia's approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and helping people find their own solutions. It suits anyone who needs a supportive space to talk through feelings and make decisions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers straightforward exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) works with strong emotions in relationships and can help when intimacy, attachment or communication problems are central.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will talk with each person about what feels useful and tailor the mix of methods to their goals and preferences. That collaborative process means methods can change as needs shift over time.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are handy for shorter check-ins, brief coaching-style support or when fitting a session into a busy day. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to choose a format that fits daily life.
