Claire Kelly counsellor in Street Somerset offering professional counselling online and in person

If life feels overwhelming, counselling can offer a place to pause, reflect, and begin to make sense of what you are experiencing.

At Clear Path Counselling, Claire Kelly offers professional counselling in Street, Somerset and online across the UK, supporting adults with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, life transitions and neurodiversity.

Sessions are available in person locally, including Street and Glastonbury, as well as online throughout the UK.

This is a warm, confidential space where you can talk openly, without judgement or pressure, and begin to understand the thoughts, feelings, and patterns that may be shaping your life.

For some people, this also opens deeper questions of meaning, identity, or spiritual experience, where this matters, it can be welcomed gently as part of the work.

Support for Trauma, Grief, Life Changes and Neurodiversity

Counselling offers steady support when life feels overwhelming, whether you are navigating trauma, grief, identity shifts, emotional exhaustion, or growing understanding of neurodiversity in yourself or in important relationships.

Six Sessions to Begin

We begin with six sessions, meeting weekly or fortnightly, creating a steady space for reflection and change.

This creates a safe and steady container to begin gently opening what needs to be explored, with care and intention. This is an ongoing space for deeper compassionate enquiry.

Longer-Term Counselling

Longer-term work is available for those wishing to go much deeper. Every six weeks, we pause to review and reflect — checking in with your goals, inner shifts, and emerging needs. These moments of reflection help us stay grounded, focused, and attuned to your evolving journey.

How counselling can help

A Focused One-Off Session

We can take a one-off deeper dive, with a 2-hr immersive, focused session on a specific theme, challenge, or life transition.

These session may draw upon myth, ritual, and deep listening as we journey through a threshold to help you navigate life’s turning points.

This is a space to work through an issue, decision, or process in one concise session.

We may include a guided inner journey, space to talk or journal, oracle cards to guide, and ritual to embody.

Why Counselling?

Illustration symbolising emotional support and healing through counselling

This counselling work supports people experiencing anxiety, grief, trauma, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties and life transitions.

There are times in life when the surface no longer holds, and we are drawn to look beneath. You feel anxious, stuck in old patterns, emotionally numb or overwhelmed, or simply unsure of who you are now.

Counselling offers a sacred pause; a protected space where you can gently unravel, re-weave, and remember yourself.

Through this soul work, we begin to:

  • Understand long-held emotional patterns
  • Reconnect with the wisdom of the body
  • Bring compassion to old wounds
  • Befriend your inner landscape
  • Open pathways to healing, meaning, and inner peace

With the support of a grounded guide, this becomes a journey of self-remembrance, at your own rhythm, with you at the centre.


What to Expect from a Counselling Session

Clear Path Counselling offers a calm, confidential space to pause, reflect, and explore what may be asking for attention in your life.

Sessions are shaped around your needs, your pace, and what feels possible to approach, with warmth, steadiness, and respect for your own way of making sense of things.

You Shape the Path

Each person’s journey is different. The work may include reflective conversation, grounding practices, body awareness, creative exploration, or simply careful listening to what needs words.

Where helpful, Claire may draw on approaches such as:

– Somatic Awareness
– Grounding & Breathwork
– Trauma-Informed Reflection
– Mindfulness
– Symbolic or Creative Exploration
– Compassionate Enquiry

FAQs

How do I book a free 20-minute consultation?

You can reach out via email at clairekelly90@gmail.com or use the consultation calendar link on the site to book.

During this call, we’ll chat about your needs, answer any questions, and see if working together feels right—no pressure, no obligation.

What happens in a consultation?

This session gives you space to share what’s on your heart and explore my approach to counselling. Together, we’ll check for alignment and decide next steps—whether you’d like to begin with a six-session block or take a different path. It’s confidential, compassionate, and entirely your pace.

How long does the counselling process take?

Initial sessions are typically held weekly or fortnightly. After six sessions, we pause to reflect on your progress. Then we decide whether to conclude or continue. Clients often choose to keep going with short-term or longer-term work, depending on their needs and goals.

How do I know if you’re the right counsellor for me?

The best way is through the free consultation. It’s a chance to sense whether the approach, energy, and pacing feel right. Many clients say just feeling understood and not judged helps them decide to continue.

What’s your practice location and accessibility?

Sessions in person take place in a private garden cabin in Street, Somerset (10 minutes from Glastonbury). It has free adjacent parking and is easy to reach off the M5. I’m fully accessible for online and local clients in the region.

Do you offer online sessions?

Yes, I offer sessions via Whereby, a secure and encrypted video platform. You can choose online-only or a hybrid schedule (mixing in-person and online sessions week by week).

Is this approach safe for clients who’ve experienced trauma?

Absolutely. I maintain an enhanced DBS, receive regular supervision, and follow ethical guidelines as a BACP member. I use trauma-informed, body-safe methods to support you in a grounded and sensitive environment.

What therapeutic approaches do you use?

I combine talk therapy, DBT tools, EFT, somatic practices, and creative ritual depending on what each session calls for. Mythic Soul Sessions weave in storytelling, symbolism, and artistic exploration, while longer-term counselling is tailored to your emotional rhythm.

Who is counselling for?

Counselling is for everyone, however, Claire is experienced in: anxiety, grief, trauma & neurodiversity
