Unique Conversations: Expert Counseling & Coaching Services

Hello, Bonjour, my name is Claire Duchateau
You are probably the one who adapts. The one who seem together.
​
I see you.
Because I understand, both professionally and personally, what it means to navigate life across cultures, identities, and expectations that were never quite designed for you.
I have been living in England for more than 25 years.
​
Professional and personal experience led me to work with this rare intersection. I understand neurodivergent minds, LGBTQ identity, the pressures of high performance, the complexity of expatriate life, being French and living abroad.
I work in English and in French, so you never lose nuance in translation, professionally or emotionally.
​
My experience as a counsellor and a coach includes:
​
-
Years of experience in counselling
-
working for
-
big organisations,
-
charities
-
and as an entrepreneur.
​
I believe a single honest conversation can change everything.
I am looking forward to having one with you.​
​​
​
​
​I specialise in working with neurodivergent and LGBTQ professionals and couples, French expats, and high-achievers who are ready to stop performing their life and start living it.
My areas of experience include
ADHD and neurodivergence;
LGBTQ identity and relationships;
couples and relationship therapy;
anxiety and depression;
expatriation and cultural identity;
career and work-related challenges;
self-esteem and self-development;
burnout;
and life transitions.
