About Claudia
Claudia Faulkner-Walsh offers a warm, person-centred approach to counselling. She uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people talk through relationship strains, parenting challenges, grief and anxiety. Claudia holds BACP accreditation and brings seven years of experience in the UK to her work.
She aims to make sessions feel straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that feel doable. Parents often come with pressures around sleeping, postpartum changes, blended family dynamics or communication problems.
Background and approach
Claudia helps people untangle those issues and find clearer ways to cope. Her background includes supporting clients with depression, stress, trauma and self-esteem concerns. She also works with people facing prejudice, identity questions and LGBT-related stress.
Her approach combines listening, emotion-focused work and attention to real-life routines that affect mood and relationships. Claudia sees therapy as a collaborative process. She encourages clients to set goals together and to try experiments between sessions.
This might include new ways of talking with a partner, adjusting daily rhythms to aid sleep, or planning steps for a career change. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the UK and internationally. Claudia uses a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How Claudia’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps clients find their own answers. This approach is useful for managing stress, depression, self-esteem and parenting worries.Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on emotions and how they shape relationships. It helps people recognise patterns, name difficult feelings and try new ways of relating. This style can be helpful for intimacy-related issues, communication problems and blended family tensions.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Claudia discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and adapts methods to suit the client. Together they decide whether to emphasise listening, emotion work or practical steps, and they review progress as therapy continues.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when tone and expression matter. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around parenting schedules and life demands.
