About Claire

Claire Jones is a counsellor who focuses on grief, self‑esteem, stress, anxiety, eating concerns and coping with life changes. She is based in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience. Claire’s approach puts the person at the centre of the work and values each client’s own knowledge of their life.

She uses Client‑Centered Therapy to create a space where people can talk through what matters to them. Claire encourages people to notice their strengths and to make choices that fit their values and goals. She aims to help clients feel more able to manage day to day pressures and to respond to difficult emotions.

Her interest in eating issues was supported by a dissertation on binge eating disorder, and she draws on that research when helping people with body image and food‑related concerns. Claire also works with life transitions such as midlife change and aging issues, and she supports carers facing stress and changing roles.

Sessions focus on listening, clear reflection, and helping people find their own solutions rather than telling them what to do. Claire emphasises practical coping steps alongside exploring underlying feelings when that is helpful. She helps people build confidence and a clearer sense of purpose as they move through difficult times.

Taking the first step can feel daunting, and Claire recognises that. She aims to make the start of therapy straightforward and respectful, helping people set realistic goals and plan the next steps together.

How Client‑Centred Practice Fits with Online Therapy

Client‑Centered Therapy puts your experience at the heart of the work. It means the counsellor listens closely and follows what you bring to each session, offering reflections that help you make sense of your feelings and options. This approach can help with anxiety, stress, grief and questions about life purpose by letting you lead the pace and focus of sessions.

Claire’s style emphasises building on your strengths and helping you make practical choices. She uses the Client‑Centred stance to support clearer decision making and greater self‑confidence, especially around eating concerns, body image and midlife transitions. The process is collaborative - the therapist will work with you to decide which ways of working feel most helpful and adapt them as your needs change.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to keep a steady routine. Online options can also help when a shorter check‑in is useful or when audio‑only contact is preferable to video to reduce bandwidth or screen time. The therapist’s listed biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking to make sure they fit your needs.
