Clair Fulton, BACP, NCPS

Clair Fulton is a UK-based counsellor with five years of practice. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through difficult feelings and life changes. Clair respects each person's own knowledge about themselves and helps them find practical steps forward.

Clair uses a flexible, person-centred style that adapts to what each person needs in the room. She blends straightforward listening with tools drawn from cognitive behavioural therapy when helpful. This means clients can both feel heard and practise ways to change unhelpful thoughts or habits.

Her background includes work in education and early intervention with 11–25 year olds, in-school support, central therapy rooms and online work. She also teaches counselling at a higher education college, sharing practical skills with trainee counsellors. That teaching informs the way she explains ideas in simple, usable terms.

Earlier roles have included supporting children and young people in residential and foster care, care leavers, and staff in health and social care settings. Clair has experience helping people process grief, cope with depression and anxiety, and manage significant life transitions such as midlife crisis.

Clair holds BACP and NCPS credentials and offers work on a self-employed basis in the United Kingdom. She draws on her varied experience to tailor sessions so they focus on what matters most to each person. If someone thinks they might be a good match, Clair asks them to get in touch to discuss next steps.

How Clair uses person-centred and CBT online

Clair draws on two clear approaches in her online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and find their own next steps.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers short, practical techniques to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviour. It can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and day-to-day coping skills by giving concrete steps to practise between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Clair will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods to fit each person. This is a collaborative process so the plan can change as the work progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy week and avoiding travel time. When arranging sessions, confirm the exact formats Clair currently offers, as options can vary. Online sessions can make brief check-ins, regular weekly work or learning CBT exercises easier to fit into everyday life.
