About Fiona
Fiona Small is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She works with people experiencing stress, anxiety and depression and helps with relationship strain, parenting challenges and life transitions. Fiona also supports those facing trauma, grief, addiction and mood concerns.
Her manner is warm and respectful. Sessions are interactive and centred on what each person needs. She combines practical techniques with a focus on understanding feelings and personal history.
Background and approach
Fiona draws on several approaches to tailor sessions. Cognitive behavioural techniques may be used to address patterns of thinking. Attachment-based ideas help when early relationships affect how someone relates now.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is part of her toolkit for helping people live by their values while managing painful thoughts. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills can be used for emotional regulation and managing overwhelming feelings. She has worked with people who identify as neurodivergent and with those who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse.
Conversations focus on small, achievable steps and practical coping strategies. Fiona offers online options and keeps sessions straightforward. If someone is ready to start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling.

Online support
She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps when connection, trust or intimacy have been affected by past experiences. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavioural changes that reduce distress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will talk with each person about their needs and goals and then suggest ways to proceed. The plan can change as therapy goes on so it fits the individual's pace and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
