Clair Fulton, BACP, NCPS

Clair Fulton is a qualified and registered therapist based in the United Kingdom who brings five years of practice to her work with adults, children and young people. She creates a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts, feelings and experiences, and she approaches each person with the belief that they are the expert on themselves. Clair adapts her methods to meet individual needs, using an integrative stance that draws on different techniques to help clients make meaningful change. BACP and NCPS are listed among her credentials - BACP refers to a professional counselling association and NCPS indicates recognised practitioner status within the counselling field.

Clair works both independently with adult clients and within local authority services as a Counsellor in Education and Early Intervention, supporting 11 to 25 year olds in school settings, central therapy rooms and online. She also teaches as a Counselling Tutor at a Higher Education College, training trainee counsellors and contributing to their professional development. Her experience includes several years supporting children and young people in residential and foster care, care leavers, and staff in health and social care settings.

She is skilled in working with early life trauma, attachment difficulties, behavioural and learning challenges, and offers support for grief and loss, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties and significant life changes. Clair has developed specific practice with adult students and those in the LGBTQIA+ community, and has recently completed training to extend her work with the skateboarding community. She welcomes contact from people who feel they might be a good match and is available to discuss how therapy could help them reach their goals.

Client-centered and CBT approaches for online therapy

Clair Fulton uses client-centered therapy to create a warm, accepting environment in which the client’s own goals and perspectives guide the work. This approach focuses on listening, empathy and supporting personal insight, and it is often helpful for issues such as self-esteem, relationship difficulties and navigating life changes.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps people identify and adjust unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, low mood and problem-solving around daily challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Clair works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts her style over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access support from home, during breaks or while balancing other commitments, and they allow Clair to continue offering consistent, accessible care to clients across her practice.
