About Fiona

Fiona Grant is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression and addictions, and offers help for parenting stress, relationship tensions, grief and sleep or eating problems.

She uses practical, evidence-informed approaches in sessions. Fiona often draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. She also integrates attachment-informed ideas when relationships and closeness are part of the concern.

Sessions focus on everyday problems and practical steps. Fiona helps people learn simple skills for managing strong emotions, improving routines like sleep and eating, and reducing unhelpful thoughts. She also supports people coping with life changes, career stress, caregiving strain and issues linked to ADHD and bipolar conditions.

Her background includes work with people facing trauma, grief and addiction. Fiona pays attention to how early attachments and recent losses affect current behaviour and relationships. She uses direct tools from CBT and ACT alongside a client-centred manner that encourages honest reflection.

People often come for short-term help with specific problems, or for longer support through major life transitions. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session so the counsellor and client can agree goals and a practical plan.

How sessions work

How Fiona uses therapy approaches online

Fiona commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives clear tools for managing anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts without overreacting and to commit to actions that reflect personal values; it can be useful for stress, addiction and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try first. That collaborative planning helps shape practical steps and short-term goals you can test between sessions.

The biography does not list which online formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting and work, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals generally adapt CBT and ACT exercises for remote sessions so you can practise skills and reflect on progress between meetings.
