About Claudia
Claudia Brooker is a BACP counsellor who aims to help people manage stress, anxiety and life changes. She offers a calm space to talk about difficult feelings like depression, trauma, grief and low self-esteem. Claudia also supports people dealing with addiction, burnout and intimacy or relationship worries. Sessions are offered in English and French and take place in the United Kingdom.
Claudia draws on a range of therapies to suit each person. She uses client-centred work to follow what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes that ease distress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy can help with attachment and relationship patterns, while existential and Jungian ideas are sometimes used to look at meaning and personal symbols.
Her background includes six years of practice and experience supporting people from mixed cultural backgrounds, including those from sexual minorities. Claudia has worked with issues connected to adoption, attachment, autism spectrum differences, caregiver stress, codependency and BDSM, kink and alternative sexual cultures, among other concerns. She tailors sessions to the person rather than using a fixed programme.
Practical work in sessions can include talking things through, structured exercises from CBT, paying attention to emotions in relationships, and exploring life stories and dreams when useful. Claudia also offers clinical supervision as part of her practice.

How Claudia’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach concentrate on understanding the client's concerns and reflecting them back so they feel heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses clear steps to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes; online CBT often includes homework tasks and short exercises to do between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy pays attention to how emotions and attachment patterns show up in relationships and can be used to work on intimacy or communication issues over time.Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which approaches suit the person's needs. This is a collaborative process and may change as therapy progresses.
The original biography referred to both in-person and online work, but did not list specific online formats. Please confirm the current session options before booking. Online counselling can make sessions easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins if needed, and help maintain continuity when routines change.
