About Claire

Claire Coker-Beyer is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns and anger. Sessions focus on what is getting in the way of daily goals and relationships. Claire works in English and does not take international clients.

She describes herself as an integrative counsellor who looks at both present struggles and past experiences. Conversations aim to spot repeating patterns that keep problems going. That can include harsh self-criticism, difficulties with intimacy, or impulses that lead to regret.

Practical steps and reflective work sit side by side in her approach. She draws on psychodynamic ideas to notice early patterns, narrative work to reframe personal stories, and mindfulness to build calmer responses. This mix gives concrete tools and time to think differently about familiar reactions.

Claire also works with people facing addictions, gender dysphoria concerns, grief, and midlife issues. She lists help for ADHD, compulsive behaviours and sexual process addictions among her areas of focus. Her practice includes conversations about career stress, social anxiety and problems around jealousy or infidelity.

Sessions are daytime only according to the original profile. Costs are organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How sessions work

How her approaches shape online work

Claire draws on psychodynamic, narrative and mindfulness ideas to guide online sessions. Psychodynamic work looks at how past relationships and early experiences influence current reactions, which can help when anger repeats in familiar situations. Narrative work focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and others, and helps shift those stories so anger has a different meaning or outcome. Mindfulness practice teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and ease quick emotional upswings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and Claire treats it as a collaborative decision. She will discuss what feels most useful based on a person’s goals, daily routines and what they want to change. That conversation helps decide which methods to try first and how to pace the work.

The original profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel, or allow a quieter check-in during a lunch break. Some approaches suit longer reflective sessions while others work well as short practical check-ins, and Claire aims to help match the session rhythm to everyday life rather than inventing a one-size-fits-all plan.
