About Claire

Claire Laforges is a UK-credentialed therapist with seven years of professional experience, holding BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has worked as a client-centered therapist and as a specialist in psychosexual and intimate partner therapy, and she has completed foundation-level infertility training with BICA. In addition to clinical work she also practices as a clinical supervisor in the United Kingdom.

Her practice spans outreach community settings, online work, and phone-based sessions, and she has supported both children and adults using a range of therapeutic tools and theoretical approaches. Claire focuses on helping people gain clearer understanding of themselves and their experiences, equipping them with practical tools to manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, intimacy and sexual concerns, and the challenges often faced by LGBTQIA+ individuals.

She also works with grief and loss, fear of change, health-related worries, ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping issues, parenting and family dynamics, and a wide range of life transitions. Claire aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and where clients are supported to take steps toward a more fulfilling life.

She typically responds to client messages within 24 hours on weekdays and updates availability twice weekly. Prospective clients are invited to book an available session to begin the therapeutic process.

Therapeutic approaches and online therapy options

Claire draws on client-centered therapy to place the client’s experience at the heart of the work, offering a respectful, non-directive stance that helps people explore their feelings and identify their own solutions. The Gottman Method is used for relationship-focused work, providing practical tools and communication strategies to address conflict and strengthen partnerships. Mindfulness therapy is offered to help clients build present-moment awareness and simple practices that can reduce overwhelm and support emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Claire collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and responsive to change.

Online therapy with Claire is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible options to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access therapy from home or elsewhere, reduce travel time, and allow ongoing support that can be scheduled around work, family, or other commitments.
