About Claudia

Claudia Castiglione is a counsellor who uses psychodynamic ideas and trauma-focused methods to help people make sense of painful patterns. She holds BACP accreditation and brings four years of practice experience in the United Kingdom. Claudia works with people facing relationship strain, grief, trauma, anxiety and anger, and she aims to create a calm space for honest conversation.

She believes each person knows their story best and carries strengths that can be built on. Sessions focus on understanding where difficult feelings come from and on practical ways to cope day to day. Claudia offers steady support while people try new ways of responding to stress and conflict.

Her background includes helping people with intimacy issues, addictions, self-esteem and career concerns as well as neurodiversity-related topics such as ADHD. She also addresses eating and body image concerns, bereavement, and problems linked to family life and commitment worries.

Claudia draws on Psychodynamic Therapy to look at how past experiences shape present feelings. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when memories and past harm affect current coping. Internal Family Systems helps people notice different inner parts and create kinder internal relationships.

She aims for clear, plain conversation rather than jargon. People can expect a collaborative approach that balances understanding with practical steps. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Claudia’s Approaches Work Online

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past relationships and experiences shape feelings today. It helps people notice repeated patterns that cause distress and gently brings those patterns into conversation.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the impact of past harm and on ways to reduce the hold of traumatic memories. It offers strategies for managing flashbacks, intrusive thoughts and strong emotional reactions.

Internal Family Systems helps people identify different inner parts and learn kinder ways of responding to them. This approach can be useful for feelings like shame, anger, emptiness or self-criticism.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match an approach to the client’s needs, goals and preferences. Sessions may mix elements from different methods as the work develops.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or by allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people access a therapist in the United Kingdom from another country. Because the biography does not list specific session types, confirm the available formats before booking to make sure they fit everyday routines and technical needs.
