Claire Laycock

Are you feeling anxious or down or that life is not going as well as you had hoped? It could be that these feelings are recent or that you have felt like this for a while. Whatever is concerning you, I am here to listen and empathise.

How often do you feel that you are truly listened to? Counselling is a unique opportunity to be heard and accepted as you are. Talking through your worries in a supportive environment can feel like a relief, it can provide validation, you may feel like a weight has been lifted. Sharing your concerns and worries can be the start to you feeling differently.

I am a qualified counsellor offering a warm and supportive space for you to talk through and make sense of what is concerning you.

My approach to counselling

I believe that the relationship between counsellor and client is key to the success of therapy. I work to establish and develop a strong therapeutic relationship so that, together we can explore what it is you are finding challenging.

As our relationship develops, we create a shared understanding of you and your life, in our sessions we can explore your thoughts, feelings, relationships and experiences at your pace.

This exploration and processing enables you to understand yourself in new ways, from this new understanding you may feel more comfortable with yourself and from there you can identify any changes you would like to make.

My Offer to you

I offer you a space to talk freely and in confidence without judgement, opinion or advice. I listen to you and work with you to understand what is getting in the way of you living a more fulfilling life. This time is for you to discover and focus on what is important to you.

I work with adult clients with a wide range of issues, this can be on a long- or short-term basis.

I am currently offering sessions from a counselling room in central Godalming.  

I also offer online sessions.  This gives you the freedom to choose where you engage in the sessions.

All sessions are 50 minutes long and can be arranged at a time that is convenient for you.  

I am a registered with the following Health Insurance providers - WPA  and Cigna 

It is important that you feel comfortable with me and that my approach works for you.

I offer a no obligation free 20 min telephone or zoom call to establish if we are a good fit

This is an opportunity for you to explain what is going on for you and what your hopes for counselling are.  This session will give you a sense of how I work.
