About Me
Claire Murray is a registered psychologist specializing in anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She earned her Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and brings a warm, compassionate, and client-centered approach to her work. Claire creates a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. She believes that clients are experts in their own lives and works alongside them to set meaningful, achievable goals, offering guidance and support every step of the way.
Claire draws on a range of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). These methods help clients challenge unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier behaviors, strengthen relationships, and process past experiences. Central to her practice is building a trusting, approachable therapeutic relationship that empowers clients to embrace growth, navigate challenges, and foster healing at their own pace. She has experience in a variety of clinical settings and has facilitated skills-focused groups for anxiety, depression, and trauma.
