About Claire Owers
Her practice also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, neurodiversity including autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, codependency, dissociation, and communication or control problems. Claire’s work is warm and collaborative, drawing primarily from psychodynamic psychotherapy to explore how past experiences, patterns of relating, and inner life shape current feelings and behaviours and how these influence relationships with others and the self.
She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused methods where appropriate, and is trauma-informed in her approach. Claire builds therapy around each person’s individual needs, emphasising a trusting therapeutic relationship in which clients can speak openly and work toward the goals that matter to them. She encourages people to take time to find the therapist who feels like the right fit.

Psychodynamic and Practical Approaches for Online Therapy
Claire draws mainly from psychodynamic therapy, which explores how early experiences, unconscious patterns, and past relationships influence current feelings and behaviours, helping clients gain insight into recurring difficulties and their impact on self and others. She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured approach that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and works on practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Solution-Focused Therapy complements these methods by concentrating on strengths and concrete steps clients can take now to move toward their goals.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Claire and each client work together to decide which methods best suit the person’s needs, preferences, and objectives, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses to ensure it remains helpful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or mobility limitations, and allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support without requiring travel, while still focusing on meaningful therapeutic progress.
