About Clive
Clive Fisher is a counsellor with eight years' experience who speaks from both professional and personal perspective. He draws on his own journey with anxiety and depression to understand how distress feels and how day-to-day coping can be rebuilt.
Clive is a BACP member - that is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and he completed a Diploma in Integrative Counselling from a BACP accredited college. Clive works in a straightforward, person-centred way.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and conversational. He aims to help people build self-awareness, notice patterns, and develop strategies that make each day more manageable. He uses a mix of approaches to suit each person.
That can include existential ideas about meaning and choice, attachment-based thinking about early relationships, client-centred listening, and cognitive techniques to manage thoughts and mood. Jungian ideas and mindfulness also appear where they help. Clive also has experience in community mental health, occupational therapy settings, and as an independent mental health advocate.
That background means he can help people navigate support options alongside therapy work. He helps with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, anger, parenting strains, career worries and neurodiversity-related matters such as autism and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients.
People who want a calm, down-to-earth listener who combines practical tools with reflective work may find his style a good fit. Therapy is shaped around each person's goals and circumstances.

Online support
How Clive's approach works online
Clive commonly draws on existential therapy, attachment-based ideas and client-centred work when counselling online. Existential therapy looks at meaning, choices and how people face life changes; it can help when someone feels stuck or questions their path. Attachment-based approaches focus on how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with trust, intimacy and communication difficulties. Client-centred therapy gives the person space to be heard and understood, and it helps build self-awareness and personal agency.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and together decide which ideas and techniques to try. That collaborative process can change over time as needs shift and progress is reviewed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow fuller face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions suit people who need a simpler connection or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, written reflection or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These formats make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and different time zones while keeping the focus on therapeutic progress.
