Claire Field

Claire Field is a person-centred psychotherapeutic counsellor who values being present for and witnessing emotional and psychological recovery. She believes that at the heart of human connection is a wish to receive unconditional love and respect, and she sees the counselling relationship as a place where genuine empathy and authentic understanding can be experienced.

Working mainly with people who have suffered relational abuse in childhood or adulthood, Claire offers a steady, non-directive presence to help clients explore their feelings and histories. She is also open to working with other concerns if contacted.

Claire believes counselling can provide a kind of freedom not always available in other relationships - an opportunity to be heard without judgement, without being told what to do, and without feeling like a burden to friends or family. In that space clients can take time to reflect, identify their own solutions and strategies, and consider what feels right next.

As a trained, qualified and experienced counsellor, Claire aims to help people reach clarity or resolution through thoughtful conversation. She also supervises other counsellors and psychotherapists and has authored the Rainbow Therapy Tools guides book series, which is available on Amazon.

Claire is a Member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (MBACP) and of the Person-centred Association. She practises in the United Kingdom and has 13 years of experience in therapeutic work.
