About Claire
Claire Jones is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, eating concerns, self-esteem and confidence issues. Her practice is grounded in listening and helping people find their own next steps.
Claire uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions focused on what the client brings. She treats each conversation as an opportunity to notice strengths and choices. Sessions are straightforward: the person speaks about what matters and Claire reflects, asks questions and supports clearer thinking.
Her research included a dissertation on binge eating disorder and she has read widely on eating and food-related issues. This background informs how she talks about body image and eating patterns without making assumptions or quick fixes.
Claire also works with people dealing with major life changes, including midlife transitions and ageing concerns. She helps clients talk through feelings of emptiness, guilt, isolation and shifting purpose. Practical coping strategies and small adjustments are part of the work she offers.
People who choose Claire often want a counsellor who treats them as the expert of their own story. She encourages exploration of values and choices, and supports realistic steps towards clearer thinking and steadier routines.
How Client-Centred work adapts to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The counsellor reflects what is said, asks clarifying questions and follows the client's concerns. This approach helps with issues like anxiety, grief, self-esteem and eating-related worries because it centres the person's own aims.Claire's background in researching eating concerns means she brings informed questions and attention to patterns around food and body image. In practice she uses open conversation and gentle exploration rather than giving instructions, which can suit people who want to find their own solutions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will discuss your goals and preferences and decide together which way of working fits best. That collaborative discussion can shape session length, frequency and focus so the work aligns with everyday life.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online session options before you book. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work or travel and can reduce the time spent on commuting. Some formats work better for short check-ins, while others suit longer conversations where speaking and visual cues help progress.
