Hi Everyone, This is me - Claire (mum, step-mum, nanny, aunt, niece, cousin, daughter, step sister, partner, friend & Psychotherapist.)

All of these roles are equally important to me, but within my role as a therapist I get to support all of you, which in itself is very rewarding and empowering.
I became a therapist after experiencing significant physical, and verbal abuse for many years.

Then sadly trauma hit my family in ways unimaginable and I thought my world had come to an end…
All I needed and wanted was support and someone who understood what I was experiencing and could help and guide me with finding ways how to cope. Going back to University to train as a Psychotherapist helped me become resilient and changed me as a person to become more self-aware.

Mental health is not always cut & dry, we all have had some sort of past trauma in our lives or been affected by mental health challenges in one way or another.

But why struggle?

Life is so short, I realised this when I nearly lost my son after his transplant. Therapy is for anyone who wants to find themselves again and change things in their lives for the better. Invest in yourself and your abilities.

Sleep is like rebooting your brain! It's when your brain gets to organise all the information you've taken in during the day, like processing memories, and clear out toxins. It is like decluttering your phone storage – it needs time to organise and delete the unnecessary stuff. For humans, sleep's when our brain processes memories, restores energy levels and resets for the next day. If you struggling with sleep, thoughts racing, insomnia, Please reach to me for help with sleep⬇️⬇️

A meta-analysis of 218 trials found it provides larger reductions in symptoms than walking, strength training, or antidepressants alone.
Dance simultaneously releases serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin while lowering cortisol. When performed in groups, it creates interbrain synchrony that strengthens social bonds. Researchers are now advocating for dance to be considered a front-line treatment for depression.
Whether in a living room or a ballroom, moving to the beat is proving transformative.
