About Fiona

Fiona Grant is a counsellor who works with people facing anxiety, depression and obsessive thoughts. She encourages small steps and practical strategies so people can feel calmer and start to move forward. Fiona uses straightforward language and a warm, respectful approach in sessions.

With four years' experience she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas. She often uses tools from CBT to help people change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. ACT techniques are used to clarify values and build actions that match what matters most to the person.

Fiona has supported people with addictions, motivation and low self-esteem. She also helps with relationship strain, major life changes and grief. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including sleep and eating problems, anger, parenting stress, chronic illness and compassion fatigue.

Her stated practice is to tailor conversations and plans to each person. That means listening first, then choosing techniques that fit the person’s situation and goals. She aims for clear, manageable steps rather than overwhelming plans.

Fiona is registered with NCPS and works from the United Kingdom. Sessions are carried out in English and she accepts international clients. The pathway to beginning therapy is simple and she guides people through the process.

How Fiona’s approaches suit online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying what matters most and taking small actions that reflect those values. It helps with anxiety, depression and decisions about life changes by turning values into practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behaviour changes. It is often used for anxiety, obsessive thinking, low mood and problems with sleep or eating because it gives clear tools to try at home. Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to your priorities, try techniques, and adjust what you do together. That way the style of therapy fits your goals and everyday routine rather than the other way around. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a workday and make it simpler to use practical exercises between sessions. Confirm the exact session options and scheduling details before booking so you know what format will be used.
