About Frances
Frances Dallison is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anxiety, low mood and relationship or family difficulties. She has 13 years of experience supporting people with stress, self-esteem struggles, grief and work-related pressures. Frances aims to create a calm space where someone can talk through what's troubling them and start to make changes that matter.
She works in an integrative way, adapting her methods to suit each person’s needs. That means she combines ideas from different approaches rather than using a single fixed method. Frances draws on psychodynamic thinking alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and she also uses Client-Centred principles to keep the focus on the person in front of her.
In sessions she aims to be warm and compassionate while helping clients notice patterns that keep them stuck. She can support people dealing with bereavement, domestic violence, addiction and eating-related concerns, as well as issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and codependency. Practical coping strategies are paired with attention to underlying feelings.
Frances works with people who are navigating major life changes, separation or the strain of parenting and blended family dynamics. She also supports those experiencing anger, emptiness or dissociation. The goal is to help clients find clearer choices and more manageable ways to cope day to day.
Her practice is based in the UK and sessions are carried out in English. People who wish to begin can use the site's process to match with her and arrange sessions according to availability.
How Frances uses therapeutic approaches online
Frances uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the focus on each person's experience, listening carefully and following what matters most to the client. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they decide what to work on.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This can help when someone struggles with abandonment, attachment issues or repeated relationship problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and test practical changes, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Frances will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt her methods as therapy progresses. Together they agree what feels most helpful and change direction if needed.

Some approaches also translate well to remote sessions, and Frances will help you choose ways of working that suit your needs and preferences.
