About Fernanda
Fernanda Nardoni is a psychotherapist registered as NCPS in the United Kingdom with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family tensions, low self-esteem and depression. She also helps with social anxiety and phobia and related concerns such as panic attacks and isolation.
Fernanda offers straightforward, conversational sessions where clients talk about what is happening in their lives. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns, practise different responses and build more confidence in social situations. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on steps the client can try between meetings.
Her academic background includes a master’s degree in Psychosocial Studies from the University of London. That study shaped her interest in how relationships and social surroundings affect mental health. Over nine years she has supported people through issues such as abandonment, grief from separation, caregiver stress and workplace pressures.
Fernanda works with both English and Portuguese speakers and accepts international clients. She describes the first appointment as a chance to map current concerns and agree clear goals for therapy. People are encouraged to choose pace and focus as they go along.
Practical matters such as session length and fees are organised through the service booking flow. Prospective clients are asked to use the platform’s matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to begin.
Approaches to social anxiety and remote sessions
Fernanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on observable changes in thinking and behaviour. Cognitive approaches help people notice and test thoughts that increase anxiety, and then practise alternative ways of thinking that reduce distress in social situations.Behavioural methods focus on gradual exposure to feared situations and practical exercises. These techniques aim to reduce avoidance, build tolerance for anxiety, and help people try different social responses in real life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fernanda will collaborate with each person to identify which methods suit their goals and circumstances. She helps set clear, achievable steps and reviews progress together so the plan adjusts as needed.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that is helpful. Some formats also need less bandwidth or allow audio-only contact, which can suit people who prefer not to be on camera.
