About Claudia
Claudia Castiglione is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who draws on psychodynamic ideas, trauma-focused work and Internal Family Systems. She brings four years of professional experience and a BACP registration. Claudia approaches sessions with respect for each person's story and strengths.
She aims to support people taking the first steps towards change. Claudia focuses on relationship strains, trauma and abuse, and grief and loss. She also helps with intimacy-related worries, depression, anxiety and stress.
Background and approach
Other areas she works with include eating and body image concerns, addiction and ADHD-related struggles. In sessions she listens for patterns that have shaped current feelings and behaviour. She uses trauma-focused methods when past events continue to cause distress.
Internal Family Systems ideas help identify and speak with different parts of a person that hold emotion and belief. Claudia encourages people to notice strengths and to use them in practical ways. She supports exploration of difficult memories and helps people find clearer ways of relating to themselves and others.
The work moves at a pace the person is comfortable with. She asks people to choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Claudia accepts international clients and offers work in English.

How Claudia works online
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on safely addressing painful memories and their ongoing impact. In remote sessions the emphasis is on pacing, grounding and carefully processing memories so that distress is reduced over time.
Internal Family Systems helps people identify different parts inside themselves that hold emotions or beliefs. Online meetings can support guided conversations between those parts and the person's core self to reduce inner conflict.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and is worked out together. The therapist and client will discuss goals, needs and preferences and then try an approach that fits those aims. Plans can be adjusted as the work progresses.
The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to keep continuity of care and to balance therapy around work, family and other commitments.
