Clive Fisher, BACP

Clive Fisher is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom who draws on his own lived experience of anxiety and depression to connect with people facing similar challenges. His personal journey, combined with formal training, informs a practical and empathetic approach that supports clients in building self-awareness and developing coping strategies for daily life.

He holds a Diploma in Integrative Counselling from a BACP-accredited college. The BACP is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the largest professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK, and Clive is a registered member. He also maintains full DBS (CRB) certification, professional indemnity insurance, and receives regular clinical supervision as part of his professional practice.

Alongside his private practice, Clive works in community mental health where he supports people with long-term severe mental health problems and helps connect them to statutory and voluntary agencies. He has experience as an independent mental health advocate and has worked in occupational therapy, bringing a broad view of support systems into his counselling work.

Clive has particular experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship and family difficulties, anger, loss and bereavement, trauma, and abuse. He adopts a person-centred stance and uses an integrative method that draws on humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive, and existential models to tailor therapy to each individual and to help empower them to move forward.
