About Claire
Claire Jones is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief and problems with self-esteem and confidence. Claire also supports those coping with life changes and issues around eating and body image, including topics she researched during her dissertation.
Her work is grounded in Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions focus on what the person brings in each week and on practical steps they can use between meetings. Claire encourages clients to notice their strengths and to use those strengths to face difficult moments, rather than relying on the counsellor to have all the answers.
Claire’s dissertation examined binge eating disorder and she has kept that topic in mind when supporting people with eating and food-related issues. She also works with concerns that often come with ageing, caregiving roles, midlife transitions and the sense of loneliness that can follow big life shifts.
People who find social situations stressful will find social anxiety and phobia listed among her focus areas. Sessions are conversational and paced to suit the person in front of her, with an emphasis on short-term coping strategies alongside longer reflections on purpose and self-worth.
Claire asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before booking a first session. This helps shape the first meeting and gives a clear starting point for what to focus on together.
How Claire’s approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of each session. The counsellor listens to what matters most and follows the person’s lead to help clarify feelings and goals. This approach is useful for anxiety, grief and self-esteem work because it focuses on the person’s experience rather than on fixed techniques.Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Claire will discuss how Client-Centred methods fit with a person’s aims and suggest adjustments based on their needs and preferences. The process is collaborative and can be reviewed as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings into a busy week and keeping progress steady when life gets hectic. The profile does not specify which online formats are used, so confirm the session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to keep appointments around work, caregiving or travel commitments and help with shorter check-ins when needed.
