Clare Fisher, BACP

Clare Fisher is a counsellor with five years' experience who focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and midlife transitions. She works in a warm, down-to-earth way and aims to make sessions feel calm and straightforward. Clare holds BACP membership, and she blends counselling and coaching to support practical change.

Clare offers a listening space for people feeling stuck, burned out or unsure about the next step. She uses client-centred conversations to help clients name what matters most and to build clearer choices. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas and Mindfulness methods alongside narrative and solution-focused practices. That mix is used to help with low mood, confidence problems, addictive patterns, grief and stress linked to caring roles or health conditions. Clare also supports people working through parenting strain, career shifts and identity loss.

Clare commonly helps people who are neurodivergent, carers and creatives, and those coping with relationship or abandonment issues. She works to strengthen practical coping skills and greater self-understanding rather than offering quick fixes.

To begin, clients follow the service's Start Therapy flow and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and Clare works with each person to find appointment times that fit their life.

How Clare uses therapeutic approaches online

Clare often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside Client-Centred work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values, which can suit anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, helping people understand commitment, abandonment and communication issues. Client-Centred therapy focuses on empathetic listening and helping the client lead the pace and topics of sessions, which is useful for building confidence and self-awareness.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Clare will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and adapt methods over time. She aims to match practical exercises, reflective conversations and mindfulness practices to what the client wants to achieve rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make therapy easier to fit around daily life and commitments, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter morning check-ins, or letting someone choose not to use video if they prefer a phone conversation. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to support continuity of care and to help clients practise new skills between meetings.
