What I do
I am a certified and registered Therapeutic Coaching practitioner
Therapeutic Coaching is a modern and powerful alternative to traditional counselling and psychotherapy and lends itself particularly well in the treatment of anxiety.
As a trained practitioner, I am equipped with a comprehensive toolkit which integrates key principles of psychotherapy & counselling, developmental psychology, neuro-linguistic programming, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, Emotional Freedom Technique and life coaching, allowing a truly flexible approach for each and every client depending on what is needed.
The Process
Therapeutic Coaching provides a proven method involving the following steps
Who I work with
I work with adults, face to face in Sevenoaks, Kent or online via zoom.
‘Anxiety and anxiety related conditions’ includes generalised anxiety, stress, panic attacks, social anxiety, fears & phobias, tics & tourettes.
Am I the right practitioner for you?
Until we’ve ‘met’ online, it will be difficult to know. I offer a free 25 minute chat via zoom. You’ll have a sense by the end of it whether you feel you’d like to continue or not, as will I. One of the most important things is the therapeutic relationship and you need to find someone you feel comfortable with and who you feel suits your needs.
Are good results guaranteed?
Good results depend on three things:
The skills and ability of the practitioner to deliver the therapy, the suitability of the therapeutic model and the level of commitment from the client.
Therapeutic Coaching is highly effective and it is perfectly possibly to get great results. However, you will need to commit to regularly attending sessions and to doing some practice between sessions.
Rates
£65 per hour or £90 per 90 minute session.
Practicalities
After an initial 25 minute chat on zoom (free of charge), I’ll send you a client questionnaire and contract for you to fill in and return if you have decided you would like to work with me. This will provide us both with clear guidelines of our working arrangement and also gives me further detailed information I need about the issue, in order to start working with you.
Sessions are 60 or 90 minutes long, as your behest.
I work in blocks of 5 sessions, usually weekly or fortnightly. However, I don’t like to tie people in, so there is always the option to stop sessions at any time, without penalty.
Testimonials
Talking to Clare felt so easy, despite the issue being so emotionally sensitive. She really took the time to understand me and helped me process my emotions. I was surprised how quickly I felt things change for me.
I really valued my sessions with Clare this summer. I was very nervous before our first session but was immediately put at ease through the initial zoom consultation; Clare was very understanding, listening to my worries and problems straight away and made me feel like my worries weren’t completely unjustified and that the problem was solvable.
As much as I initially thought that zoom sessions would work best for me, I got the most out of the in-person sessions in the end and the visualisations we did in these. Clare was amazing at setting the scene for visualisations and I really felt I could get into them.
I highly recommend Clare for her warmth and easy-going nature. I’ve had psychotherapy before but really liked this different approach. She taught me some really effective tools and techniques that I will continue to use to help me in future. I’ve really benefitted from the sessions and feel generally more positive and ‘lighter’ in my life.
It was my first experience with any therapy and I really loved our sessions. Clare was easy to talk to and very relaxed. Helped me so much.
Thank you, Clare.
