# Edge Psychology

Edge Psychology is an independent practice in Chichester, West Sussex, offering specialist psychological therapy and assessment services for adults. Founded by Claire, a HCPC-registered forensic psychologist and accredited schema therapist with over a decade of public service experience, the practice delivers evidence-based interventions both face-to-face and online.

The practice primarily serves adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and entrenched patterns rooted in early life experiences. Claire works with clients locally across Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey, whilst also providing online therapy throughout the UK.

What distinguishes Edge Psychology is its dual focus on therapeutic and forensic work. Beyond traditional therapy using Schema Therapy, CBT, and Behavioural Family Therapy, Claire provides comprehensive psychological assessments including cognitive evaluations, psychological risk assessments, and autism assessments—services valuable for individuals, legal professionals, and organisations requiring structured, evidence-based reports.

The practice is distinguished by its personalised approach; Claire conducts thorough initial consultations to understand clients' specific needs and tailors therapeutic methods accordingly. Her forensic psychology background brings additional rigour and depth to assessments and risk evaluation. The combination of clinical expertise, specialist credentials, and willingness to adapt treatment to individual circumstances positions Edge Psychology as a comprehensive psychological service for complex adult presentations.
