Integrative counsellor focusing on practical coping

About Claire

Claire Jones is a counsellor who uses an integrative approach to tailor therapy to each person. She draws on humanistic and holistic ideas and works alongside people to help them manage anxiety, stress and other concerns. Claire aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people feel listened to and respected.

She describes herself as approachable and down to earth. Sessions focus on building self-awareness, self-compassion and practical coping skills. Claire offers tools to help with day-to-day difficulties and to support long-term change.

Her background includes experience in the corporate world, so she understands workplace stress and the pressures of busy working lives. That experience informs how she helps people bring coping strategies into their everyday routine. Claire has five years of professional experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials.

People come to her for a wide range of concerns. These include anxiety, panic disorder and panic attacks, depression, relationship strain, self-esteem and motivation. She also works with issues such as grief, trauma-related difficulties, addiction concerns and ADHD-related problems.

Claire prefers a collaborative way of working. She treats the person as the expert on their own life and aims to build a trusting relationship. The focus is on practical steps and reflective conversation that help people feel more able to cope and move forward.

To begin, Claire asks people to reflect on what matters most to them and what they hope to change. From there she helps set manageable goals and develops strategies suited to each person's needs and circumstances.

How Claire's approaches can work online

Claire uses integrative, humanistic and holistic ideas to shape therapy. An integrative approach blends different evidence-based techniques to match the person's needs, offering both conversational work and practical tools for coping with anxiety, panic attacks and stress.

Humanistic work focuses on listening, building self-awareness and strengthening self-compassion. This helps when people feel overwhelmed by emotion or stuck in unhelpful patterns. A holistic perspective looks at how work life, relationships and health interact and aims to find manageable changes that suit everyday routines.

Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, try different methods if needed, and adjust the plan as things change. This collaborative way helps people find the best fit for their situation.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family life and making it easier to attend from different locations. Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful for shorter check-ins, follow-ups, and regular weekly work that slots into their schedules.
