About Frances

Frances Dennehy is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people handle relationship strains, family conflict, trauma, depression and anxiety. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, grief, addiction concerns, and struggles with self-esteem or anger. Frances works with a broad range of life issues, including career changes, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach centres on building a trusting, caring relationship where people can talk without judgement. She uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on each person’s experience and pace. Sessions are a place to make sense of difficult feelings and find clearer ways to move forward.

Frances aims to help clients notice patterns that get in the way and to develop practical changes. Conversations often look at communication problems, guilt and shame, intimacy issues and self-love. She pays attention to problems that arise around pregnancy and childbirth as well as everyday stresses.

Her style is warm and straightforward, with an emphasis on listening and understanding before suggesting steps to try. Frances encourages small, manageable shifts rather than quick fixes. Parents and individuals who feel overwhelmed often find this steady, respectful way of working useful.

She holds the NCPS credential, with four years of professional experience. If someone wants to explore working together Frances invites them to make initial contact and find out more about how sessions might suit their needs.

How Frances uses Client-Centred ways online and in conversation

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s feelings and experience at the centre. It involves careful listening, reflecting back what is said, and supporting people to find their own answers. This approach can help with issues like low self-esteem, relationship conflicts, stress and grief by allowing someone to make sense of their feelings at their own pace.

The therapist focuses on building trust and understanding first. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. Frances will help clients explore what feels most helpful based on their goals and preferences, and she will adjust the way she works as the relationship develops.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy days, avoiding travel time, and making it easier to attend from different locations. When session formats are not listed in a biography, it is best to confirm current options before booking. Frances aims to make sessions workable for daily life and to support clients in finding times and rhythms that fit their routine.
