About Claire
Claire Coker-Beyer is a counsellor who focuses on helping people regain confidence and manage anxiety. She listens without judgment and helps clients spot patterns that hold them back. Sessions are aimed at practical change so people can make decisions that suit their lives.
She uses a mix of therapeutic ideas to look at how past experiences shape current feelings. That can mean tracing where self-criticism began and practising kinder ways of talking to yourself.
Background and approach
Work often includes breathing and attention exercises to steady anxiety and create space for clearer thinking. Claire draws on narrative and psychodynamic ideas to understand personal stories and underlying patterns. Narrative approaches help people rewrite difficult chapters, while psychodynamic thinking looks at recurring themes in relationships and mood.
Her practice also brings in mindfulness and Jungian perspectives. Mindfulness offers simple exercises to reduce reactivity and build focus. Jungian ideas can help clients explore personal symbols and deeper meanings that matter to them.
Claire holds BACP accreditation, and she has three years of professional experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, sexual and intimacy concerns, career pressures, and questions about identity. Sessions are available in the United Kingdom and are conducted in English.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Existential ideas invite people to reflect on meaning, choice and responsibility in everyday life; this can help when someone feels stuck about career, relationships or life direction. Narrative therapy focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and offers ways to rewrite those stories so they cause less harm and open up new options.Claire aims to work collaboratively to find the right approach. She will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest ways of working to try together. This is a practical conversation and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or ongoing text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full conversation and non-verbal cues, phone calls can be easier with low bandwidth, live chat allows quicker check-ins, and messaging suits ongoing reflection or brief touchpoints. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, studying or family life.
