About Fiona
Fiona Adams is a BACP counsellor with five years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep and eating problems, and other concerns listed on her profile.
She draws on several ways of working to help people understand what is happening for them. Fiona uses cognitive behaviour approaches and attachment-informed methods alongside mindfulness and narrative techniques. She also brings motivational interviewing skills when people want to make changes in their lives.
In sessions she helps people notice patterns of thought and behaviour that make daily life harder. She talks through practical strategies for managing anxiety and improving sleep, and helps people reflect on how past experiences shape current relationships. Fiona also supports those dealing with trauma, sexual abuse, pregnancy and fertility related losses, and post-pregnancy difficulties.
Her background includes work with a sexual abuse charity and a private practice seeing people from a range of professions, including healthcare staff and emergency services. She is a member of the British Infertility Counselling Association as well as the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which appears as BACP on her profile.
When someone first contacts her, she will work to identify the main problems and agree what to focus on. Sessions aim to be practical and reflective, helping people build clearer ways to cope with anxiety, relationship strain, life changes and other issues named in her profile.
How her approaches translate to online work
Fiona uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can be practised between sessions to manage anxiety and sleep problems. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help when trust, intimacy or avoidance are causing strain. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that aim to reduce rumination and increase calm in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then try ways of working that match those factors. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need lower bandwidth options, depending on the format confirmed at booking.
