I am also qualified and experienced in clinical supervision.
I am passionate about helping others explore their thoughts and feelings, face and overcome challenges in their lives, build resilience for a healthy and balanced life. I am an TCK (Thurd Culture Kid/Adult) therefore of mixed cultures. This gives me a good knowledge and understanding of different ethnic, cultural and multi-faith backgrounds, as well as an interest in working with members of the sexual minority.

Claudia is very concerned about her clients needs and really managed to know how to help them improve themselves. I feel safe and heard during our sessions. Highly recommend her

Claudia is the first therapist I’ve ever had that has got me to open up in the first session. I’ve had therapy for a few months now and my mental health is so much better than it was when I started, as is my ability to actually make sure I’m looking after myself first instead of putting myself last. Couldn’t recommend anyone better.

Claudia has been and continues to be a great help and I feel I boost of enthusiasm after each of our sessions. She is very accurate with her instincts and can often say outright the issue that I am describing.
