Claudia Canova is a BACP counsellor with four years of professional experience. She creates a supportive working relationship where people can bring what feels heavy and begin to notice change. Claudia focuses on helping people become more authentic and live with greater psychological freedom.

Claudia blends practical problem solving with deeper exploration of what is emerging in a person's life. She pays attention to how past experiences shape present behaviour and feelings.

Background and approach

Sessions look at day-to-day struggles as well as longer standing patterns that limit fulfilment. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. Other areas she often addresses are self-esteem, parenting strains, eating and sleeping problems, anger and career worries.

Claudia also supports people facing family of origin issues, abandonment, loneliness and immigration-related stress. Her approach draws on attachment-based, psychodynamic and Jungian ideas alongside client-centred and existential perspectives. That mix helps people understand feelings, rebuild connection patterns, and explore personal meaning.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. Claudia has a background outside therapy in media, communications and education. She also volunteers with groups offering emotional support and co-facilitates workshops for trainees at a psychosynthesis training organisation.

Her varied life and work experience informs a warm, down-to-earth style.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Claudia draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses. This approach can be useful for worries about intimacy, communication problems and feeling alone.

She also uses client-centred principles that place the person's experience at the heart of the work. That means the counsellor follows what matters most to the client and offers a kind, non-judgemental way of talking things through.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Claudia will work together with each person to choose which ideas and methods feel most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process can change over time as different issues come into focus.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and reading non-verbal cues, phone sits well for lower bandwidth or if someone prefers not to be on camera, and chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or people who express themselves better in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while still keeping the work steady.
