About Fiona
Fiona Small is a counsellor registered with NCPS in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, motivation problems, low self-esteem and depression.
Fiona uses straight talk and practical steps in sessions. She aims to help people name what is happening, notice patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions focus on what clients want to change and small actions they can take between meetings.
Her work draws on several methods including client-centred ways of listening, cognitive behavioural techniques to shift thinking and behaviour, and mindfulness approaches to support present-moment coping. Hypnotherapy and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolkit when appropriate.
Fiona often helps people dealing with life transitions, grief, feelings of emptiness, isolation and struggles with body image or attachment concerns. She also supports people facing issues such as communication problems, control or jealousy, and the impact of domestic violence or infidelity on wellbeing.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Fiona encourages clear goals and regular review of progress. She asks questions, offers reflections and suggests exercises to try between sessions. Booking starts by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first meeting.
She works in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Fiona uses therapy approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy is about focused listening and prioritising the person’s own goals. The counsellor reflects what is said, asks questions and supports clients to name their priorities and make choices that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and problems with motivation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will discuss different methods with the client and decide together which fits best for the issues and goals presented. That choice can change as progress is made and new needs emerge, and the process is collaborative throughout.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings around study, work and other commitments, and making it easier to keep regular appointments. If you are unsure about formats or what will work for you, confirm the available session options before booking so you can plan how therapy fits into your week.
