About Claire
Counsellor Claire Jones is a BACP member with three years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, coping with life changes, self-esteem and eating concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she practises in the United Kingdom.
Claire helps people talk through loss and adjustment. She draws on her research into binge eating disorder to support conversations about eating and body image. She also supports people facing midlife transitions and the stresses of caregiving or ageing concerns.
Her approach follows Client-Centred Therapy. That means conversations focus on the person in front of her. Claire pays attention to what matters most to the individual and encourages them to use their own strengths to move forward.
Sessions look at everyday problems as well as deeper feelings such as guilt, shame, emptiness or loneliness. Claire works on practical coping for stress and anxiety, and on building confidence and self-love over time. She includes talking about communication issues and life purpose when those come up.
Claire’s decision to train as a counsellor came from her own positive therapy experience. She asks straightforward questions, listens carefully and helps people set clear steps between sessions. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
How Client-Centred work translates to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person’s own goals. The counsellor offers open questions and reflective listening so clients can notice their thoughts and feelings. This approach suits issues like low self-esteem, anxiety, grief and decisions around life changes.Claire’s work with eating and body image draws on her research into binge eating disorder. That research informs how she discusses eating patterns and motivation without imposing a fixed plan. Conversations aim to increase self-awareness and practical steps rather than quick solutions.
Finding the right approach is a shared task. Claire will work with each person to test what helps most, adjusting pace and focus as the work continues. She involves clients in decisions about goals and methods so sessions fit individual needs.
