Clare Slaney is a psychotherapist, supervisor, and writer based in West London, with more than 20 years’ experience working with individuals and groups. Rooted in Person-Centred and Existential traditions, her practice is 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. Exploring 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.
