Claire Jean Seymour helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction struggles, relationship problems and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with depression, grief, intimacy concerns, sleep or eating difficulties, and work-related strain. Claire is named up front because she meets people directly and talks through what matters to them.

Claire works in a straightforward, respectful way that values each person's experience. Conversations are shaped around what a person wants to change.

Background and approach

She adapts tools and techniques to fit individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Her approach draws on several practical therapies, including cognitive behavioural methods for unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas for living with difficult feelings, and attachment-based thinking for relationship patterns. She also uses client-centred listening and skills from dialectical behaviour work when emotion regulation is needed.

Claire has seven years of professional experience and holds the NCPS credential. She works with adults on a wide range of concerns such as ADHD, bipolar difficulties, compassion fatigue, chronic health challenges, body image and grief. Sessions focus on small, practical steps that people can try between meetings.

People describe Clare as warm and direct when deciding goals and plans. She helps clients notice patterns, try new strategies and build clearer ways of coping. The aim is calmer day-to-day living and better control over what matters most.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Claire draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying practical experiments to change them. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and many daily worries.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck and choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for stress, chronic health challenges, and ongoing emotional pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Claire will discuss options and try methods that suit a person's goals, preferences and life situation. Sessions are collaborative, with short exercises and goals to practise between meetings.

Online sessions give flexibility for how people meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper dialogue, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel, while still using the same therapeutic methods.
