About Clair
Clair Conway is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years of practice. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious, grieving, depressed or coping with major life changes. Clair listens with care and helps people notice their strengths so they can move forward at their own pace.
Clair works from a person-centred perspective that puts the client’s experience at the centre of sessions. She also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioural approaches and acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and practical, with time spent looking at values, beliefs and everyday thinking. People come to Clair for a wide range of concerns beyond anxiety and stress. Her background includes supporting people affected by trauma and abuse, bereavement, caregiver strain, fertility and health-related issues such as cancer, and relationship breakdown.
She also helps with feelings like emptiness, guilt and shame, and with attachment or abandonment worries. In sessions Clair aims to create a steady, non-judgemental space for exploration. She helps people identify small, manageable steps and practises methods that can be used between appointments.
The emphasis is on practical change that fits into day-to-day life. Clair offers help in English and works with adults in the UK. Her approach is respectful and collaborative, and she supports people as they explore choices and make changes that matter to them.
Approaches that suit online therapy
Clair uses person-centred work that focuses on the client's experience and strengths, helping people feel heard and understood in sessions. This approach supports pacing and personal exploration in whichever online format feels most comfortable.She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical alternative responses. These methods suit issues like anxiety and stress because they involve clear steps and homework that can be carried out between sessions. Acceptance and commitment ideas help people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values, especially during life changes and grief.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Clair will discuss goals, preferences and the practicalities of different methods and then tailor the work together. Clients and therapist review what helps and adjust approaches as needed to fit the person's life and aims.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is good for a fuller conversational experience, phone might suit a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth, and messaging can work for brief updates or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and everyday routines while maintaining regular contact with a therapist.
