Claudelle Shaw, AASW

Claudelle Shaw provides evidence-based therapeutic support to individuals aged 13 years and over as well as to couples, working with a broad range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and the effects of family violence for both victims and perpetrators. She also supports people facing complex trauma, self-harm and suicide risk, parenting and couples counselling, coping and adjustment issues related to challenging life circumstances, and other concerns that affect day-to-day functioning.

Working from a person-centred stance, Claudelle collaborates respectfully with each individual or couple to build self-awareness and to promote changes in behaviour, rigid thinking patterns, and deeper emotional difficulties. Her practice draws on a variety of evidence-based modalities tailored to each client, including psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), trauma-informed theory, narrative therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, and motivational interviewing.

Claudelle aims to create a welcoming and accepting environment where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions without judgment, while learning practical tools to make meaningful changes and improve overall well-being. She values client feedback to ensure sessions remain relevant and focused on the goals that matter most. Claudelle holds AASW, a credential from the Australian Association of Social Workers, reflecting her professional membership and standards in social work practice.
