Connect with Claire Ruthven Counselling

Hi there! My name is Claire and I'm a counsellor specialising in relationship and couples' therapy. I see both couples and individuals in my practice
My approach to counselling starts by allowing space and time to get to know you, and what has brought you to seek support at this time. I enjoy getting to know people from all walks of life, and I aim to create a warm and trusting experience in sessions.
I've provided counselling and support to individuals, couples and families for over 10 years, both in my private practice and in the community health sector.
