Claire Field, BACP

Claire Field is a person-centred counsellor who focuses on helping people rebuild after difficult experiences. She uses a warm, respectful approach that puts the client at the centre of the work. Claire has 13 years' experience and is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, also known as BACP.

She often helps people affected by relationship harm and relational abuse, whether those experiences began in childhood or in adulthood. She also supports people facing grief, anxiety, depression, addictions and the practical strains of caregiving. Claire pays attention to issues such as ageing and geriatric concerns, attachment and abandonment, and the effects of cancer on wellbeing.

In sessions she listens without judgement and offers space to make sense of difficult feelings. The aim is to help people find their own solutions and next steps, rather than impose advice. Conversations are straightforward and paced to each person's needs.

Claire also supervises other counsellors and psychotherapists and has written the Rainbow Therapy Tools guides book series, which is available on Amazon. Her background combines direct client work with support for other professionals.

People who choose her can expect a consistent, person-focused relationship where being heard is central. If someone wants help sorting out emotional pain, improving daily coping, or clarifying life decisions, Claire offers time and practical conversational support to do that.

Person-centred and mindfulness approaches for online therapy

Claire draws on person-centred work and mindfulness to guide online sessions. Person-centred therapy means listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client, helping them find their own answers. This approach suits people dealing with relationship harm, self-esteem difficulties and major life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy adds simple practices to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and managing strong emotions, and is offered alongside the person-centred conversations where helpful.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Claire works collaboratively to decide what feels most useful, adjusting methods as goals and needs become clearer. She draws on her experience to keep the work practical and relevant.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel, and can reduce time spent commuting. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and can be chosen to match someone’s day-to-day routine.
