Claire Thomas-Davis, BACP

Claire Thomas-Davis is a counsellor who aims to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected. She greets each person with warmth and an open, listening approach. Claire uses straightforward conversations to help clients make sense of their feelings and find small, doable ways forward.

She has five years' experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Claire draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses emotionally-focused methods to help people notice and name powerful feelings.

Sessions are practical and paced to the person's needs. Claire blends client-centred listening with mindfulness and somatic ideas so people can connect thoughts and bodily sensations. This can help when anxiety, grief or past trauma feels stuck in the body as well as the mind.

Common issues she supports include trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes such as divorce or pregnancy and childbirth. She also focuses on abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, and isolation.

Claire offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and scheduling follows the platform process for matching and booking.

How Claire’s approaches work online

Claire uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and reactions; this helps when someone keeps repeating the same relationship difficulties or feels cut off from others. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people notice, name and safely approach strong emotions so they can be understood and shifted rather than avoided. Somatic therapy brings attention to bodily sensations and movement to help release tension held in the body after trauma or long-term stress.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Claire will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and agree a way forward together. That collaborative step makes it easier to try an approach and adjust if it does not feel right.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy fit everyday life. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in and text messaging lets someone write between sessions. These options give flexibility for different routines and communication styles while keeping the focus on progress and accessibility.
