About Clair

Clair Conway is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and major life changes. Clair aims to create a steady, respectful space where a person can talk things through and feel heard.

She believes people know their own story and already have strengths to build on. Sessions focus on understanding personal values, thoughts and beliefs to make sense of how problems developed.

Background and approach

Clair listens, reflects and supports clients as they consider new ways of coping. Her practice draws on person-centred ideas alongside cognitive behavioural coaching and acceptance and commitment approaches. Those methods are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try small changes and practice new skills between sessions.

The emphasis is practical and paced to each person. Clair has supported people through separation, family problems, bereavement, illness and caregiving strain, among other challenges. She also works with concerns such as attachment and abandonment issues, dissociation, guilt and shame, and difficulties linked to fertility or hospice and end-of-life situations.

Appointments are offered through online formats including video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging. Clair’s approach aims to be collaborative so clients and the counsellor shape goals together and review progress over time.

Everything Clair lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How evidence-based techniques work online

Clair uses person-centred work to prioritise listening and understanding. This approach focuses on the person's own perspective and values, helping them feel heard and to build on their strengths. It is useful when someone needs a calm space to make sense of difficult feelings.

She also uses cognitive behavioural coaching, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. That method helps people try small, practical experiments to change unhelpful habits and reduce distress. Acceptance and commitment approaches are used to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck and to identify meaningful actions that match personal values.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Clair works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals, needs and day-to-day life, and she reviews progress together as therapy continues.

Online sessions can be held by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, which makes therapy more flexible for different lifestyles. Video is close to face-to-face and lets the counsellor and client use visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins or when someone prefers not to use audio or video. These options aim to make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family or health commitments.
