Claire Turnbull

Member Status: Accredited

Member No: NCS14-00627

Location: Newcastle upon Tyne

My name is Claire and I am a fully qualified and practising Psychotherapist, Counsellor and Hypnotherapist in Newcastle upon Tyne. I am committed to providing you with Counselling, Psychotherapy or Hypnotherapy in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.

I work with both individuals and couples on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully.

I am experienced in helping clients who have experienced difficulties with :

Stress
Relationships
Panic Attacks
Anxiety
Bereavement
Redundancy
Depression, and
Addiction.

My practice is within easy reach of Newcastle upon Tyne and Gateshead and easily accessible from other areas of Tyneside.

I believe we become emotionally unwell because we do not know how to manage the sudden and overwhelming emotions of a certain situation.
Talking therapies help us to remember the situation, deal with the emotions and come to terms with what has happened and allow us to find more suitable ways to overcome and cope with these emotions.
