Claire Jones , BACP, NCPS

Claire Jones is an integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience and credentials that include BACP and NCPS, which are recognised professional counselling qualifications in the UK. She works from an approachable, down-to-earth stance and aims to create a space where people can explore what is troubling them without judgement. Claire emphasises practical ways to build self-awareness, self-compassion and self-acceptance while offering tools to help clients cope now and in the future.

Her practice draws on an integrative framework, combining methods to tailor support to each person’s needs. This humanistic and holistic orientation places the client at the centre of the work and supports a collaborative relationship that encourages growth and resilience. Claire seeks to make people feel listened to, valued and understood so they can work through anxiety, stress, relationship challenges and other life difficulties.

With a background in the corporate world, Claire brings firsthand knowledge of workplace stressors and practical strategies for managing them within everyday life. She has experience supporting people with issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, motivation, self-esteem and depression. Claire believes every person carries strengths that can be used to navigate challenges, and she recognises that taking the first step toward therapy often takes real courage.

Integrative and humanistic approaches for online therapy

Claire uses an integrative counselling approach that blends different evidence-based techniques to suit each person's needs, tailoring methods to address issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and low self-esteem. This flexible approach means sessions can focus on practical coping strategies, emotion-focused work or exploratory conversation depending on what will help most.

She also draws on a humanistic, holistic perspective that treats clients as the experts of their own experience and emphasises empathy, self-compassion and personal growth. That orientation supports exploration of values, identity and relationships in a way that seeks to build long-term resilience and self-understanding.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Claire works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences and circumstances. For many people, online therapy increases accessibility and flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity when schedules change, and access support from home. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these formats to provide meaningful, evidence-informed work that meets individual needs.
