About Fiona
Fiona Small is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Fiona aims to make the first step into therapy straightforward and supportive for anyone feeling overwhelmed.
She creates an open, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without being rushed. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her, with practical steps that can be used between meetings. Fiona draws on a range of approaches to match a client’s needs rather than using only one method.
Her background includes working with people experiencing grief, compassion fatigue and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with attachment issues, communication problems, body image and challenges linked to autism and Asperger Syndrome. Fiona pays close attention to the personal values and goals each person brings to therapy.
In sessions she mixes listening with straightforward techniques to help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thinking and build small, steady changes. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness techniques may be used to strengthen motivation and calm racing thoughts. Hypnotherapy can be offered alongside talking approaches when it fits a client’s preferences.
Fiona is registered with NCPS. She offers appointments that can work around everyday life and welcomes people who live outside the UK as well. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking.
How Fiona uses talking therapies online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on what each person wants to work on and values. The counsellor listens and reflects back what they hear to help people make sense of their experience and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will discuss different options and decide together with the client which methods suit their goals and day-to-day life. That conversation guides whether more practical techniques, mindfulness work or gentle hypnotherapy elements are used.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people keep momentum between sessions by using simple home exercises and mindfulness practices that link directly to work on stress, anxiety and life changes.
