Counselling in Worcester
A warm, confidential space to talk through life’s challenges. Talk Therapy Service offers counselling that helps you find clarity, confidence and calm, one conversation at a time.
Serving Worcester, Droitwich, and surrounding areas.
Hello, I’m Claire offering Counselling and Psychotherapy at Talk Therapy Service. Sessions can be held by phone, online & in person at my Worcester based office.
I am an Accredited member and registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).
Using an integrative approach and working holistically with clients I often incorporate the psychological, physiological, spiritual and emotional aspects of the challenges experienced in being human. Encouraging greater self-awareness and facilitation of the release of tension caused by life’s struggles.
Support and encouragement are offered in a compassionate and non-judgemental way. The process of therapy can lead to new perspectives and self-awareness, this can be both exciting and scary so it’s important that you feel listened to, respected and understood.
Fully insured to practice as a Psychotherapist and Counsellor, I am also subscribed to the Disclosure and Barring Updates service and offer service to those aged 16 years upwards.

Your Counselling Journey to Wholeness Wholeness
I come from the era where it was advertised as “good to talk” but since then technology has by default made it more difficult and challenging to talk. My experience as a Youth Worker and Counsellor have shown me that people aren’t really talking about their feelings and stuff that really matters to them.
The technology that allows us to have a phone conversation all the time has in some cases created even more social isolation than ever before. Such isolation and loneliness can result in anxiety and depression.
Anti-depressants are given as cure rather than talk therapy and, whilst they can be enormously helpful, they are also masking underlying issues which I believe can be addressed and supported by Counselling and talk therapy.
I know it can take a lot of courage to ask for help so I will do what I can to help you to feel comfortable and answer any questions you have. Together, we can explore where you are now and where you would like to get to.
To help you I offer a free no-obligation phone consultation lasting 15 minutes. This is an opportunity for you to ask any questions, decide what is right for you at this time and whether you’d like to work with me.

- Depression

Your Questions Answered
What can I expect in my first counselling session?
Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and talk about what’s brought you to therapy. You can share as much or as little as you like, there’s no pressure. Together we’ll explore what you hope to gain from counselling and decide the best way forward.
Do you offer online or phone sessions?
Yes. Counselling sessions can take place in person at my Worcester office, or remotely by phone or video call, whichever feels most comfortable for you.
How long are the sessions, and how often do they take place?
Each session lasts 50 minutes, usually held weekly at a regular time that suits you. We can discuss the best frequency based on your needs and availability.
Is everything we talk about confidential?
Yes! Everything shared in counselling is treated as strictly confidential. There are rare exceptions where I’m legally required to share information for safety reasons, but I’ll always discuss this with you first whenever possible.
How do I book a session or ask a question?
You can book a free initial consultation or send a message via the contact form. I’ll get back to you promptly to arrange a time that works for you.
