About Fiona
Fiona Hazelden is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has 15 years of professional experience in the UK. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low mood, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictive behaviours, and challenges around confidence and motivation.
Fiona keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts conversations to what each person brings. That can mean focusing on coping strategies for daily stress, looking at patterns that affect relationships, or pacing work through trauma and loss.
She also supports people navigating life transitions such as career changes, moving out, or returning to study. Other areas she addresses include sleep and eating concerns, anger, ADHD-related struggles, and chronic illness or caring responsibilities. She works with clients on communication, boundaries, and rebuilding self-worth.
Her approach is respectful and sensitive. Sessions are shaped around the individual’s needs and goals, with an emphasis on practical steps to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. Fiona accepts clients in the UK and international clients who communicate in English.

How evidence-based approaches work in online sessions
Fiona uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One common approach involves structured methods to manage anxiety and low mood, teaching breathing, planning and thinking strategies that reduce overwhelm and improve motivation. Another approach looks at processing trauma and loss in paced, stabilising ways so people can manage memories and emotions without being overwhelmed.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review current problems, goals, and how someone prefers to work. Over the first few sessions they try methods and agree what feels most helpful, adjusting the plan as needed.
Confirm the specific online session formats before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into study or a first job, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also lets people continue work while living abroad or studying elsewhere. Fiona works with registered professionals and will discuss how to shape sessions to fit everyday life during the initial matching and scheduling steps.
