About Clare

Clare Fisher is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of practice and a BACP registration. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or burnt out. Clare meets individuals who want clearer thinking and steadier coping day to day. Together she helps clients build resilience and reconnect with parts of themselves that feel lost.

Clare works in a collaborative, adaptable way. She draws on person-centred counselling, narrative ideas, mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to shape sessions around what each person needs. Sessions can include gentle coaching, paced trauma-informed support, and practical steps for change.

She has supported adults from many backgrounds, including neurodivergent people, carers and creatives, and those facing life transitions, relationship strains, grief or challenges with self-esteem. Clare also lists work with issues such as ADHD, addiction, chronic illness, attachment concerns and coping after separation.

Her approach is straightforward and down-to-earth. Conversations are guided by the client’s priorities and Clare uses simple, concrete techniques to help people notice patterns, try new responses and practise small changes between meetings.

Clare’s training includes an MSc in Counselling and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She also has qualifications in coaching and online and telephone counselling. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How Clare uses therapy approaches online

Clare draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas in her work. ACT focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and take small, values-led actions. It can help with anxiety, low mood and life transitions by building greater flexibility in how someone responds.

Attachment-based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. This approach helps people understand recurring difficulties with trust, closeness or fear of abandonment and offers ways to try different ways of connecting.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Clare will discuss your goals and preferences and adapt methods to suit what helps you most. She encourages gentle experimentation, checking in about what feels useful and changing direction where needed.

Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week, reducing travel time, and keeping appointments during life transitions. The original biography notes Clare has certification in online and telephone counselling; please confirm the exact session options available before booking so you know how meetings will be arranged.
