Claire Ashby offers a warm, integrative, and person-centred therapeutic approach, deeply committed to helping clients navigate anxiety, sleep difficulties like insomnia, ADHD, and the unique challenges of neurodivergence. Drawing on her extensive training, she flexibly integrates hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and trauma-informed strategies, creating a safe and non-judgemental space for profound exploration. As a neurodivergent therapist herself, Claire brings a profound level of empathy and understanding to her work, ensuring a neuro-affirming environment tailored to individual needs and communication styles. She guides clients through concerns such as panic attacks, phobias, OCD, and stress-related disorders, helping them reduce anxiety, manage intrusive thoughts, and reclaim confidence to live more fulfilling lives. Sessions are client-led, allowing you to explore past experiences and their present impact, while also offering practical tools, strategies, and psychoeducation, including techniques from CBT for Insomnia, to support immediate well-being. Claire is dedicated to empowering clients to find their own solutions, celebrating their strengths, and fostering self-awareness to build resilience and prevent relapse through open-ended therapy. She actively collaborates with clients to reframe problems and encourages re-engagement with life's joys, providing praise and encouragement every step of the way.

The platform is really great
The platform is really great. It's easy to connect and have sessions. It helps you find the right specialist for your needs. I’ve been working with one specialist for a while now, and I really like the sessions. Everything is simple and smooth. Definitely recommend it!

I've already had a few sessions
I've already had a few sessions through Pleso and can't recommend this platform enough. Registering was easy and after submitting the test I was presented with three therapiest recommendations which match my therapy needs best (one of them was actually the person recommended by a friend, so that was a big plus). Booking sessions is very easy and I like the fact that I can join them via the email links, which is very convenient. I will be recommending Pleso to my friends and family, making appointments and attending therapies couldn't be easier, which is very important if someone struggles and needs help.

Nice platform
Nice platform. All the therapists on the platform share a lot of details about themselves, so you can choose someone based on relevant info. I have been using it for a month but it is easy and comfortable, to be doing it from my home.

Pleso Therapy is a helpful platform
Pleso Therapy is a helpful platform that supports me in managing my anxiety and improving my relationship with my partner. What stands out most is the initial test I take, which helps me find the therapist who fits my specific needs. This approach makes the process more efficient, saving me time and ensuring that I’m matched with someone who aligns with my requirements from the start.

I was looking for a therapist
I was looking for a therapist for quite some time and after a few tries was giving up. I've decided to give pleso a chance because of the fact, that the prices don't vary between therapists (so I could choose a person not thinking of my budget). The platform is great, I did the test and got recommended my therapist. I've had 3 sessions so far and I already feel the positive impact of the therapy.
