About Clair
Clair Fulton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship worries and LGBT-related concerns. Clair aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them and take steps towards change.
She uses a client-led approach that treats the person as the expert on their own life. That means sessions focus on what the client wants to address and move towards practical steps they can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Clair also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques when helpful to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Clair holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has five years' experience in counselling roles. She has worked with a wide range of issues including trauma, grief, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD and compassion fatigue.
Her background includes work in education and early intervention settings with young people aged 11–25. She has experience working face to face and remotely with adults, and has a history of supporting people in residential and foster care, care leavers, and staff in health and social care.
Clair also teaches counselling skills to trainee counsellors and has engaged with community groups such as the skateboarding community. Clair describes therapy as a collaborative process. She encourages people to be open about their goals and to take small practical steps between sessions.

How Clair’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the client’s concerns at the heart of each session. The counsellor listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping them make sense of feelings and decide what to try next. It is useful when someone wants a supportive space to talk through life changes or relationship worries.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice and test patterns of thinking and behaviour. It involves practical exercises and small steps to change unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. CBT can be especially helpful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Clair will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped in the past, then suggest ways of working that fit the person. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between commitments.
