Mental Health Counselor

Hello! I’m Claire Thompson, I’m a counselor with my master’s degree in counseling psychology. I offer therapy services at our Fox Chapel clinic.

Working in an outpatient therapy setting I have gained experience supporting adults across the lifespan, especially those in middle and later adulthood. Using a person-centered and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach to help clients navigate caregiving, grief, and other life transitions. I strive to create a compassionate, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll explore the challenges you’re facing while building on your strengths and values to help you move toward the life you want to live.

I strive to create a compassionate space where you are heard, using mindfulness techniques and strength-based interventions to help you build your toolbox to navigate those life challenges. Through our work together, we’ll uncover a deeper self-understanding and how to live in line with what you value most.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable; reaching out for support in those moments is an act of great strength. You do not have to carry difficult experiences alone. I strive to create an empathetic and thoughtful environment where you are seen and supported. I would be honored to walk with you through life’s challenges while building the life you want.
