About Fiona

Fiona Grant is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with people who are struggling with anxiety, depression and OCD and also helps with addictions, motivation, self-esteem and relationship problems.

She uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in conversations. Sessions are focused on identifying patterns, testing small changes and building skills that feel useful in daily life. Fiona aims to keep explanations straightforward and to use exercises that can be practised between sessions.

Fiona also supports people coping with grief, anger, sleep and eating difficulties, and the stresses that come with parenting or career change. She has experience with ADHD, compassion fatigue and some long-term health and caregiving challenges. Her work covers a wide range of issues including attachment-related problems and body image concerns.

People who choose to work with her can expect a conversational, client-centred style that draws on CBT, ACT and elements of attachment-based thinking and dialectical work. She helps people work out clear steps for change and notices what gets in the way of those steps.

Her straightforward approach is practical and action oriented. Fiona asks about everyday routines and relationships and uses that information to plan work that fits real life. She welcomes international clients and conducts sessions in English.

How Fiona uses evidence-based approaches online

Fiona commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). CBT looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings and committing to values-based actions that matter to the person.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Fiona will talk about what feels most useful, try techniques together, and adjust the plan as needs and goals become clearer. She treats the choice of approach as something to test and refine rather than a fixed label.

The original biography does not state specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work and busy days. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand less time, and let people avoid travel so they can use session time differently. Registered or accredited professionals can offer the same kinds of therapy work remotely as they do in person, with adjustments to how exercises and between-session tasks are set up.
