About Clive
Clive Fisher is a counsellor who draws on both personal experience and professional work to help people manage anxiety, depression and other life challenges. He holds a Diploma in Integrative Counselling from a BACP accredited college and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Clive says his own experience of living with anxiety and depression helps him understand what clients may be feeling. He aims to help people build self-awareness and practical coping strategies for day-to-day life.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on finding what will work for each person rather than using a single fixed method. In addition to independent practice, Clive works in community mental health. There he supports people with long-term mental health problems and connects them to statutory and voluntary agencies.
He has also worked as an independent mental health advocate and alongside occupational therapists. Clive uses an integrative style that blends humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive and existential ideas when helpful. He describes his usual approach as person-centred, meaning he aims to tailor the work to each person’s needs and goals.
This can include trauma-focused ways of working when people bring experiences of abuse or traumatic stress. Typical concerns he helps with include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, anger, loss and bereavement, trauma and abuse. He also lists a wide range of additional areas such as ADHD, attachment issues, body image and carer stress.
Clive offers sessions in English and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally. He has eight years' experience and follows the BACP’s ethical and professional guidelines.

How Clive’s approaches translate to online therapy
Clive commonly uses Trauma-Focused Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centred work. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the impact of traumatic experiences through structured conversations and coping strategies, which can help with symptoms of past abuse or traumatic stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect current feelings and behaviours, useful for relationship, intimacy and attachment concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will listen to your history, priorities and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Work is collaborative and can shift over time if different strategies are needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are good for face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other practical demands.
