About Clair

Clair Fulton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and major life changes. She supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, career questions and issues around self-esteem and body image. Clair also works with people from the LGBT community and those affected by trauma, addiction or compassion fatigue.

She uses a person-centred way of working, which means she listens closely and follows what matters to each person. She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, using practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try different coping strategies. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual’s needs.

Clair has five years of experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She has worked in education and early intervention with young people aged 11–25, in schools and therapy rooms, and has experience supporting people from residential care and care-leaver backgrounds. She also teaches counselling at a higher education college.

Her background includes many years of face-to-face work and remote contact with clients. She has supported people through attachment difficulties, bereavement, fertility and blended family issues, and practical challenges such as sleep and eating concerns. Clair describes therapy as a step-by-step process and aims to help people move towards clearer goals.

If someone thinks they might be a good match, the next step is to get in touch and discuss how sessions might help reach their aims.

How Clair’s approaches translate to online work

Clair uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening, acceptance and following what matters to each person. This approach helps when someone needs a space to make sense of feelings, explore identity or work through grief.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and tests small practical changes. CBT-style work can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and unhelpful habits by giving simple exercises and ways to try different responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Clair will discuss goals and preferences and suggest whether a person-centred emphasis, CBT techniques, or a blend would suit best. That decision is made collaboratively and can shift as therapy progresses.

The profile notes experience with both face-to-face and remote contact, but current session options may vary, so confirm what formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, study or family routines, reduce travel time, and enable shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer not to use video, since phone or messaging options sometimes require less bandwidth or a quieter room.
