How Fiona’s approaches suit online counselling
Fiona uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that translate well to remote work. CBT involves identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns; it often uses worksheets and short exercises that can be done between sessions. ACT focuses on values and taking meaningful action while accepting difficult feelings; it uses mindfulness and practical experiments to test new ways of living.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Fiona works together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences and daily life. She explains options, tries techniques in session, and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into busy days, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that having sessions remotely helps them keep continuity through life changes while still focusing on clear, practical goals.
