About Claudia
Claudia Brooker is a counsellor who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, addiction and low self‑esteem. She speaks English and French and works online using video, phone, live chat and messaging. Claudia holds BACP registration and has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
Claudia uses Emotionally‑Focused Therapy alongside client‑centred and cognitive behavioural ideas to help people notice difficult emotions and respond to them differently. Sessions aim to make feelings easier to name and manage, and to try small changes between appointments.
Background and approach
She also draws on existential and Jungian perspectives when useful to explore meaning and personal patterns. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD, bipolar and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with relationship struggles, intimacy issues, parenting stress and career pressures.
Claudia pays attention to attachment and adoption or foster care questions when these are part of someone’s story. Claudia describes herself as culturally aware, having lived across different backgrounds, which informs her work with people from diverse ethnic and faith traditions and those in sexual minority groups. She offers tailored sessions that try to match the pace and aims a person prefers.
Therapy is collaborative and practical, with focus on small steps that can make daily life easier. To start, a short questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled through the service. Fees vary by location and the subscription model used can be cancelled at any time.

Online support
How approaches like EFT and CBT work online
Claudia commonly uses Emotionally‑Focused Therapy to help people recognise and sit with strong feelings. EFT focuses on identifying emotional responses and finding new ways to relate to them, which can help with anxiety, intimacy concerns and grief. Client‑centred therapy provides a listening, non‑directive space where the person sets the pace and goals, supporting those who need time to find their own answers.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is often used alongside these approaches to spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments. CBT offers clear, practical steps for things like sleep, eating or anxious thinking, which many people find useful when they want concrete tools.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to identify goals, try different methods and adjust the plan as needed. That way the work reflects the client's needs, preferences and everyday life.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls let people see body language and build rapport; phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check‑in. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer written reflection or need support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments, while allowing therapists to tailor methods to each person's situation.
