Clare Slaney

Clare Slaney is an established counsellor, groupworker and supervisor based in Central London. She qualified as a psychotherapist in 2007 and completed the MA in 2009. Her practice is rooted in the person-centred and existential traditions and grounded in authenticity, paradox and the continual negotiation between self and society. Alongside her clinical practice, she speaks and writes on the structural challenges facing the counselling profession, particularly the exploitation of unpaid labour and the impact of poverty on both clients and therapists. In exploring the themes of marginalisation, power and ethics in the counselling professions, she advocates for more honest and equitable practice. She is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
