Dr Clare Drea|Clinical Psychologist
Talk Therapy & Brainspotting
Hi, I'm Clare — a Clinical Psychologist working with clients virtually and in-person in Cambridge.
Over 13 years working with hundreds of clients, one thing has become clear: talk therapy helps enormously — until, for some people, it doesn't. They understand the roots of the problem intellectually, the history, the why, yet nothing shifts. They stay stuck, replaying the same patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating.
I know this from the other side too. It's what led me to train in Brainspotting; a somatic trauma therapy that works with the deeper emotional centres of the brain and body to release what talking alone can’t always reach.
Today I offer both traditional talk therapy for reflection and understanding, and body-based approaches like Brainspotting for the patterns that live deeper than words.
