About Fiona

Fiona Grant is a counsellor who focuses on practical, evidence-informed help. She uses approaches such as the Gottman Method alongside cognitive and acceptance-based tools to help people manage distress.

Background and approach

Fiona writes short, clear plans with each person and keeps sessions straightforward and goal-focused. She has four years of experience working with anxiety, stress and depression.

She also supports people facing addictions, trauma, grief and major life changes. Fiona helps with relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, parenting strains and career decisions.

Fiona draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas in sessions. Those approaches guide simple exercises, thought-tracking and values-based actions.

She adapts tools to the situation so conversations lead to small, achievable steps between sessions. Her practice can also address sleep and eating problems, ADHD-related coping, compassion fatigue and chronic health or caregiving stress.

Fiona is familiar with issues linked to adoption, abandonment and blended families and will work through practical ways to manage those pains. Sessions are offered in English and Fiona accepts international clients.

She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and are charged through a cancellable subscription model.

Approach-led online therapy for clear progress

Fiona commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside relationship-focused methods such as the Gottman Method. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take values-based action, which can ease anxiety and motivate change. CBT offers practical techniques for tracking thoughts and shifting unhelpful patterns, often useful for low mood, worry and sleep problems. The Gottman Method brings specific tools for improving communication and managing conflict in close relationships.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Fiona treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss what feels most helpful based on your goals and preferences. She can mix techniques and will review progress so the plan fits your needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy around work, family life or travel. Video is useful for fuller conversation and non-verbal cues, phone works well when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible for different routines and circumstances.
