About Fiona
Fiona Small is a counsellor who combines several therapeutic approaches to meet each person’s needs. She works in the United Kingdom and brings six years of experience to sessions. Fiona aims to create a warm, respectful space where people can start to make sense of difficult feelings and situations.
Her practice attends to a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, mood difficulties, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping and eating problems, ADHD and neurodiversity-related issues. She also addresses relationship and family problems, parenting strain, anger, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue.
Fiona draws on Client-Centered Therapy as a core influence, alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and emotion-focused methods. She also uses approaches informed by attachment theory and skills from dialectical behaviour work to help clients manage emotions and improve communication. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
Her style is described as warm and interactive, with an emphasis on respect and sensitivity. Fiona listens first, then works with people to set practical goals and steps they can try between sessions. She encourages small experiments that build confidence and clearer understanding of patterns.

How Fiona’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor offers empathic responses and helps people find their own solutions, which can suit issues like low self-esteem, relationship stresses and general life changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to values-based actions; it can be useful for anxiety, depression and managing difficult feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships affect current patterns and can help with trust, abandonment concerns and emotional connection difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods that might fit. Decisions are made together, and plans can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
The original biography does not state which online session formats are offered. Please confirm the available options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. Some formats allow shorter check-ins, others let people use video for face-to-face conversation or phone when bandwidth is limited. These practical benefits often help people maintain regular contact and build steady progress over time.
