About Claire
Claire Jones offers an integrative, humanistic approach to counselling. She combines practical tools with a conversational style so people can feel heard and begin to make changes. Claire works to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk about what matters most to them.
She focuses on everyday problems such as stress, anxiety and low mood. Claire also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, grief, addiction issues and parenting strain.
Background and approach
Other areas she supports include ADHD, bipolar mood shifts, trauma and chronic health challenges. Claire trained as an integrative counsellor and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and NCPS is the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society.
She brings five years of professional experience in counselling. Her approach is down to earth and collaborative. Sessions aim to build understanding, self-compassion and practical coping skills.
Claire listens without judgement and works alongside people to set clear, realistic goals. Before entering counselling Claire worked in the corporate sector, so she is familiar with work-related stress and the pressures of busy careers. She blends that experience with counselling techniques to help clients manage daily life more easily and improve emotional wellbeing.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Claire uses integrative and humanistic techniques online to help people understand feelings and develop coping skills. Integrative work combines elements from different evidence-based methods so sessions can be adapted to the issue at hand, such as anxiety, depression or relationship concerns. The humanistic element focuses on empathetic listening and helping clients build self-compassion and clearer goals.Choosing the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. Claire will talk about what feels most helpful and try different ways of working to find the best fit for the client's needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative approach makes it easier to adjust the focus as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for those who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick support between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
