Claire Owers , BACP

Claire Owers is a fully qualified and registered counsellor and psychotherapist with four years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She works from a compassionate, non-judgmental stance and combines warmth with clear clinical focus to help clients make sense of their feelings and relationships. Claire is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings trauma-informed awareness to her clinical work.

She specialises in anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, stress, and transitions, and has additional experience supporting issues such as attachment and abandonment, neurodiversity-related challenges including autism and Asperger Syndrome, body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiving stress, and dissociation. Her practice emphasises understanding how past experiences influence present behaviour and emotional responses, and she attends to both interpersonal patterns and the inner relationship a person has with themselves.

Claire’s primary orientation is psychodynamic psychotherapy, which explores underlying feelings, patterns, and the influence of past relationships. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused work when these approaches suit a client’s goals. Her work is collaborative and tailored to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on building a respectful therapeutic relationship and helping clients take meaningful steps toward their goals. Based in the United Kingdom, Claire offers services in English.
