Claudia Brooker

Claudia Brooker is a BACP-registered counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and relationship concerns. She supports people dealing with grief, trauma and low self-esteem. Claudia works in English and French and practises from the United Kingdom.

Claudia offers short, clear sessions that focus on what the person wants to change. She listens first and asks practical questions to understand day-to-day difficulties. Sessions look at thoughts, feelings and behaviour so clients can try different ways of responding to problems.

Her background includes six years of clinical work and a range of therapeutic approaches. Claudia draws on client-centred and cognitive behaviour ideas to keep conversations grounded and useful. She also uses emotionally focused and existential perspectives when people want to look at relationships or life meaning.

Claudia has experience with neurodiversity and lists autism and ADHD among areas she works with. She also supports people who identify as LGBT and those with caregiving stress or blended family challenges. Her approach is practical and respectful of cultural differences from growing up in mixed cultures.

People who come to Claudia usually want clear options to try between sessions. She helps set small, achievable steps and reviews progress together. To begin, readers can follow the site booking flow and complete the short questionnaire to be matched and scheduled according to availability.

How Claudia's approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so the client can find their own solutions; this suits worries about self-esteem, relationship strain and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to try new responses to anxiety, sleep problems or addictive behaviours.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name feelings in relationships. It can be useful for intimacy-related issues and communication problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Claudia will discuss goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try. The process is collaborative and reviewed as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the session options before booking as the biography does not list formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce time spent travelling and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people take therapy from a familiar setting while trying approaches that suit day-to-day life.
