About Claire

Claire Kleynhans is a degree-qualified integrative counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom with 8 years of professional experience. She combines different therapeutic ideas to support people through a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties, adapting her approach to each person's circumstances and goals.

She has worked with clients facing anxiety and depression, attachment difficulties, loss and bereavement, body image concerns, identity questions, loss of purpose, anger and aggression, codependency, family conflicts, childhood and relational trauma, ADHD, and experiences of abuse. Her practice emphasizes sensitive, respectful, and compassionate care aimed at helping clients feel heard and understood.

Claire offers support for those who feel lost or disconnected, helping them to reconnect with themselves and gain greater self-awareness. She works collaboratively to explore relationships, personal patterns, and the challenges that get in the way of living well. Treatment plans are tailored to each individual's unique needs and priorities, with a focus on finding practical ways forward.

Taking the first step can require courage, and Claire acknowledges that effort. She encourages clients to begin the process of change and to work toward a life they feel proud of, offering steady support along the way.

Approaches That Shape Online Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships influence emotional responses and connection. It helps clients explore patterns in relationships, build safer emotional bonds, and address issues like abandonment or attachment struggles.

Client-Centered Therapy places the person's own experience at the heart of the work. The therapist provides nonjudgmental support and reflective listening to help clients clarify values, build self-awareness, and find their own solutions to difficulties.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers practical tools to manage anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful thinking, and is often used to help clients develop new coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Claire will work with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as the work progresses to ensure the best possible match.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions around work, family, or mobility needs. These options allow clients to work with licensed professionals and therapists from locations that suit them, supporting continuity of care and access when in-person meetings are not convenient.
