I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental relationship in which you can be deeply listened to and understood, as you explore whatever you wish to bring to therapy. We will work together at the pace that is right for you, to bring kind, attuned and embodied awareness to the feelings and patterns of behaviour that are troubling you, and develop an understanding of how they arose. This growing self-awareness and self-acceptance can bring a greater sense of freedom from constraining emotional habits and behavioural patterns that no longer serve you, and help to restore an inherent sense of wellbeing. Choosing the right therapist is important, and I offer a free initial meeting for up to 45 minutes on Zoom, with no obligation. This provides an opportunity for us to get a sense of how it might be to work together, and whether that feels like a good fit. Subsequent weekly one-hour sessions can be in-person, or on Zoom (or a combination), depending on what suits you. To get in touch, please contact me by email (clarepdegenhardt@gmail.com) I will get back to you as soon as I can.

I have an MA in Mindfulness-based Core Process Psychotherapy from the Karuna Institute, and am a registered member of UKCP, whose code of ethics I abide by.  I have been working with clients since 2019, both privately and in the voluntary sector, and I have regular supervision. Prior to training as a psychotherapist, I have worked with various social enterprises, publishers and in academia as a writer and editor. I also trained and worked as a homeopath when my children were young.  The holistic approach to wellbeing continues to inform the way I work and see the world. I am the mother of three young adults.
