I'm Claire, and Stillpoint Counselling is a place built on warmth rather than distance. Stillpoint Counselling was created because I don't believe counselling has to feel like a clinical appointment. It can feel like an honest conversation with someone who's really there with you. I work with you if you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, disconnected or simply exhausted from holding everything together. You don't need to arrive with a diagnosis, a plan or all the answers. I'm BACP-registered, so you're in safe, professional hands to work towards feeeling more like you, together.

Session Types
In Person Sessions
Sessions take place in person in Gosforth, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. It's a calm, private space where you can just be yourself. It's easy to reach, whether you're coming from Newcastle or further afield, and there's nothing clinical about it. Just a quiet room, a cup of something warm if you'd like one, and the space to talk.
Online Sessions
Online sessions work just as well as meeting in person, and for a lot of people, they're easier to fit around a busy life. We'll meet over video call, so all you need is somewhere private and a decent internet connection. I'll send you everything you need to get set up before your first session, so there's nothing to worry about on the day.
