Online support for Parents of Newborns through to Teenagers
Many parents spend so much time looking after everyone else that they rarely stop to notice the toll it's taking on them
Online counselling for Parents feeling overwhelmed, anxious or struggling with the emotional impact of parenting
Parenting can be joyful, meaningful, and deeply rewarding.
It can also feel overwhelming, lonely, exhausting, and far harder than you expected.
Many of the parents I work with feel guilty for struggling at all. They tell themselves they should be coping better, being more patient, more grateful, or simply managing everything more easily than they are.
How Counselling can help....
Counselling offers a space to explore your thoughts and feelings.
It's not about being given advice, or having someone tell you how they'd handle it, or being made to feel like your problems aren't that bad, really. It's about building enough trust with someone to finally say what's actually going on, honestly, without editing yourself, and being heard without being judged.
When you talk something through properly, rather than carrying it alone, something shifts. Things that felt tangled start to feel clearer. You begin to understand yourself a little better. Why you feel the way you do, why you react in certain ways, and what might be sitting underneath it all. That understanding is where things start to change.
You don't have to keep going round in circles on your own.
Testimonials
" Therapy with Claire helped me to see that some of my parenting worries were rooted in what my younger self had missed out on. Understanding this helped me recognise the impact it was having on my parenting and to have more compassion for myself. I now feel more confident and am kinder to myself."

" Claire supported me in making sense of a difficult relationship with my mum and understanding how it shaped me. Through counselling, I developed healthier boundaries, felt more confident in myself, no longer affected by old patterns. The relationship now feels much healthier and more balanced."

" Counselling helped me understand how unresolved birth trauma was contributing to my anxiety as a parent. I was constantly worried about my child's safety, found it difficult to be apart from them, and often felt overwhelmed in crowded places. Counselling helped me make sense of these experiences, build my confidence, and feel much calmer in day-to-day life - Thanks, Claire!"
