Claire Harrison

Member Status: Accredited

Member No: NCS18-06019

Location: Gloucester

Brought up in a small Lancashire town , I had a yearning for when I was old enough, to head for the big city, London, where I worked as a nanny and later trained to be an actress. After several years of treading the boards I became disillusioned and decided to train to be an aromatherapist. When working with clients I would often find there were deep emotional issues going on which at the time I did not know how best to help clients with and so I decided to train to become a counsellor.
I have faced many difficulties and challenges in both my personal and professional life which I feel makes me a more empathetic counsellor.
