About Claire
Claire Kleiner is a therapeutic counsellor who works in the United Kingdom. She practises client-centred therapy and focuses on helping people process difficult situations and move toward a more fulfilling life. Claire has four years of experience and tailors sessions to each person’s needs.
Claire keeps the therapy space simple and person-focused. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most and checking what someone hopes to change. She then follows the person’s pace and priorities rather than imposing a strict programme.
Background and approach
She has developed particular experience supporting neurodivergent people and members of the LGBT community. That background shapes how she adapts communication, pacing, and the types of questions she asks in sessions. Claire also works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety and relationship issues.
Other areas she regularly helps people with include grief, sleep problems, addiction-related issues, anger and self-esteem. She also supports people handling life changes such as separation, career shifts and long-term health concerns. Claire describes her role as supportive and empowering.
She aims to help people notice what matters to them, build on their strengths and try new ways of coping. Sessions are arranged to fit individual needs and preferences so people can find an approach that works for them.

Approaches Claire lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Claire’s practice adapts for neurodivergent people and LGBT clients by changing the pace, wording and session structure to fit each person. She will work with someone to find which way of speaking and pacing feels most helpful and will adjust over time in response to progress and feedback. Choosing the right approach is collaborative and reviewed together throughout therapy.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone sessions can be simpler when low bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need more flexible, brief contact during busy days. These options offer practical flexibility so therapy can fit around work, family and other commitments.
