More about Fiona

My expertise is with stress, anxiety and overwhelm. Stemming from this are often relationship issues, sleeping disorders- even procrastination & motivation can be symptoms.
A lot of what we do together is about clearing the decks and getting to the root of it all - but importantly for you - this is to initiate change for you to move forward, not to be triggered by the past.
In our sessions together your time may also focuses on increasing your self esteem and confidence to do this we uncover resources you have and go to the good memories - people don’t often associate therapy with the good stuff - but there is that side too!
All in all it feels like a big list of things that can be tackled! It is .. we’re complex and unique beings with thoughts and feelings that often get scrambled!
I help you translate. Put the past into a perspective and help you get to the future - while we’re at it - make your ‘now’ feel a whole lot better. Dare I say lighter and even peaceful.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
