About Quentin

Counsellor Quentin St Clair is a member of NCPS and has 15 years of practice in the United Kingdom. He works with common problems such as stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Quentin also helps people with ADHD, addiction concerns and trauma-related difficulties.

Quentin uses a client-centred way of working, which means sessions focus on what the person brings. He balances that with structured tools when they are helpful. These include techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and solution-focused work to support practical change.

Many clients come wanting help with how their identity and values fit into everyday life. Quentin can help people clarify values, set goals and test small changes outside sessions. He also works on communication and intimacy issues, including relationship patterns that cause repeated conflict.

He has particular experience supporting people who identify as LGBT and those dealing with grief, loss and the aftermath of abuse. He has also supported people through separation, parenting pressures and career challenges.

Quentin has worked with neurodiversity concerns and with people who find impulsivity or addiction a problem. He combines conversational listening with clear steps to try between sessions. This makes work feel practical and focused while staying grounded in the person's experience.

How Quentin uses therapy approaches in online counselling

Client-centred work means sessions focus on the person's concerns and priorities. The counsellor listens and follows what the person brings, then suggests steps to test between sessions. This suits people who want to shape the work around their own goals. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, offers practical tools for managing thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties because it breaks issues into specific patterns to change. Solution-focused work concentrates on what a person wants to do differently and on small, achievable steps. It can be helpful when someone needs quick practical changes or clearer short-term goals. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Quentin will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day needs and agree a plan together. That might mean more listening in some weeks and structured exercises in others. The profile does not list which session formats he uses, so please confirm options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a weekday break, reduce travel time and allow quicker access from different locations. Some formats also make shorter check-ins easier or remove the need to be on camera, depending on what the person prefers.
