About Claudia
Claudia Castiglione is a counsellor who uses psychodynamic ideas, trauma-focused tools and Internal Family Systems to help people untangle painful patterns. She brings four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and works with adults facing a range of life stresses. Claudia writes plainly and listens closely to each person's story.
Claudia helps people who are dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and intimacy-related worries.
Background and approach
She also supports those facing anxiety, depression, addictive behaviours, ADHD and changes in career or life direction. Her approach aims to connect current difficulties with earlier experiences that shape how people relate to themselves and others. In sessions she encourages clients to notice recurring feelings and inner parts that influence choices.
Work can include looking at past relationships, developing coping strategies, and using trauma-focused methods to reduce distress. Claudia frames the client as the expert in their life while offering guidance and practical steps forward. Her style is calm and collaborative.
She offers straightforward reflections and asks questions that help people see patterns more clearly. Small changes in awareness and routine are often used alongside deeper emotional work. Claudia accepts people from different countries and conducts counselling in English.
People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that suit their timetable. The process is intended to be flexible and responsive to each person's needs.
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and time. Online sessions using psychodynamic ideas help people notice recurring feelings and behaviours and make different choices in daily life.Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on reducing the hold of traumatic memories and on building coping skills. Delivered online it can involve guided conversations and paced exercises to lessen distress and increase calm when memories surface.
Internal Family Systems treats emotions as parts that have roles inside a person. In remote sessions the therapist helps clients name these parts, understand their intentions and create kinder internal dialogue to improve decision making and self-care.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claudia will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. She checks in as therapy progresses and adjusts the plan if something is not helpful.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, journalling-style reflection or more frequent contact between longer sessions.
