About Clare
Clare Fisher is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of practice and a membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She offers short weekday and weekend appointments to fit busy schedules. Clare aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming.
Clare keeps sessions practical and focused on the person in front of her. She listens first, then works with each client to decide what might help next.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Clare also supports those coping with grief, trauma and addiction-related issues. She uses a narrative style alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas to help people reframe their stories.
Client-centred and mindfulness ways of working are also part of her approach. Clare adapts her tools to what each person needs rather than following one set method. Clare has experience supporting people with parenting pressures, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and challenges after separation or divorce.
She also works with concerns such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems and commitment fears. Sessions often focus on rebuilding confidence and practical coping skills. Appointments can be by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Clare explains fees vary with location and are organised through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session when convenient.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Clare directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
Therapy approaches and online options that fit your life
Clare commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reshape the stories they carry about themselves. This approach looks at how past events and dominant narratives affect current behaviour and can be useful for issues like identity loss, relationship patterns and feelings of emptiness.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them. ACT helps people identify values and take small steps that match those values, often useful for anxiety, depression and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clare will talk with each client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then agree a way forward together. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time if something isn’t working.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let people have a face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions can fit short check-ins or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text messaging are handy for quick reflections, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. Many people find this mix of options makes it simpler to keep therapy going alongside work, family and other commitments.
