I’m incredibly grateful to Clare for the EMDR work we did - I don’t mean to sound dramatic when I say it has been genuinely life changing. I was pretty much consumed by a difficult past experience to the point it was hugely impacting my quality of life, and my work with Clare has completely changed that. I can think about it totally differently, if I even think about it at all - I never thought I’d get to that place. Clare also brought so, so much kindness and empathy to our sessions, which made me feel incredibly safe and comfortable.
I genuinely couldn’t recommend Clare enough - thank you so so much.

TLDR: I highly recommend Eaton Therapy, Clare is superb. If you're looking for the right person to go through therapy with, you found her.
We'll start with the practice, as it was important for me. The practice is situated right next to the Booths carpark in Ilkley, where not only can you park for 2 hours in a town where it's notoriously hard to park, but you can also get a rotisserie chicken and a coffee for like 7 quid. The Room is great, no unnecessary distractions, warm and comfortable, all the things you need.
The owner and therapist, Clare, is understanding, calming and very patient. I didn’t really know what to expect and was worried that our views would not align on many of my issues, but that never happened, she expertly lead me to my own conclusions, which I know will lead to a long lasting and very positive change in my life.
I had a superb experience, at Eaton Psychotherapies, not always easy due to the nature of what we worked though, but it was one of the best choices I have made for my metal health in years.
Go, you wont regret it.

Clare helped me to overcome my Anxiety issues, helping me identify my worries and giving me the tools to manage them and see things more logically. I am now able to function like my old self and enjoy life again. I cannot thank Clare enough. I would highly recommend Clare to anyone considering therapy.
Clare changed my life! She guided me through my OCD and taught me the tools I needed to fully understand and combat it. I would recommend her to anyone experiencing something similar. Clare was extremely professional, understanding and non-judgmental, whilst also very friendly. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!
Clare is a dedicated therapist who is passionate about helping others and very professional. She is always well prepared, but also flexible. Clare has helped me tremendously and I was impressed with her commitment. She is a good soul and with this being very rare, I was extremely lucky to be taken under her wings. Thank you Clare!
My sessions with Clare have been so beneficial and I feel in a much better place now! She is very easy to talk to and offers strategies and techniques that really work. Highly recommended!
I honestly cannot recommend Clare enough. She has helped me so much with the anxiety and worries I was experiencing. Thanks to her, I feel like the old me again, but with a lot more understand of my own thought patterns. Throughout our sessions, Clare was professional, compassionate, friendly, understanding and patient. I always felt supported and able to speak openly to her. I am so pleased that I found her and cannot express enough how grateful I am for all of her help.
Clare was incredibly helpful! She's a great listener, provides great insights, really gets to know you and I can tell she really cares. She is very knowledgeable and taught me a great toolbox for dealing with my issues.
I have had the most incredible inner-self transformation because of the help Clare has given me. The way in which she would listen and discuss the things I was opening up about allowed me to fully immerse myself in this process. I was able to breakdown fully and not feel awkward or uncomfortable in the slightest. In turn this allowed me to embrace the feelings I had about what I was going through and learn to manage the emotions that came with it.
Clare has taught me techniques to deal with the most difficult of times and given me a sense of "self" and "normality" back to me from being completely lost.
I am forever grateful for the help I have received working with Clare. Thank you!

I could not have asked for a better therapist! Clare really helped the issues which I was faced with and helped me to find strategies to deal with them! She created a very comfortable and safe environment where I felt able to truly open up. Overall a great experience and I cannot recommend her enough!
Having had 9 sessions with Clare, I would describe her therapy as life changing. I have really enjoyed our sessions together, she has made me feel comfortable and able to speak as much or as little as I want to. I also appreciate Clare's laid-back and flexible style of therapy, on one occasion I felt uncomfortable with a behavioral experiment and so instead we found another way to the same result. Thank you Clare so much!
I had recent therapy with Clare in order to address my "severe OCD." Having worked with Clare over a number of weeks, I can honestly say that Clare was the best therapist I have experienced. I've had therapy for my OCD on multiple occasions and from multiple therapists but I've never made such progress under any other therapist. Clare's style is hugely conducive to achieving positive results. Based on my experience a great therapist is one that provides a bespoke recovery plan whilst also providing therapy at the optimal speed. Clare is extremely easy to build a positive rapport with and seems personally invested in achieving your recovery. Having someone that is so committed to improving your personal situation is extremely important as it provides you with that trust and motivation to succeed. I'm personally proud of the progress that I made but this certainly couldn't have been achieved without the work that Clare did. I couldn't recommend Clare more for anyone that needs support. Clare will make you feel as ease and you can feel confident of making improvements with Clare's support.
This was my first time doing CBT and I found Clare to be very welcoming and supportive. The techniques she has helped me learn have been very valuable, and I have found significant improvement as a result. I would highly recommend!
I’d been struggling with worry and anxiety for quite some time and it was negatively affecting my life. I’m incredibly glad I decided to reach out for help from Clare.
She helped me understand what I was feeling and taught me lots of tools and techniques for managing my anxiety and other strong emotions. I’ve found these to be very effective in helping me deal with feelings of being overwhelmed. She was also a great listener and provided me with a lot of support.
I now feel like I’m in a much better situation and more prepared to face day to day challenges
I would wholeheartedly recommend Clare to anybody who was considering therapy.

This was my first experience with counselling and exploring CBT. Clare was exactly what I needed, her approach is calming and made me feel comfortable during our sessions. Clare was really good at explaining things through, taking time with me when it was needed and offered the support I needed. I have grown and learnt a lot and have many tools to use. I would recommend Clare to anyone seeking help.
