Fiona Adams is a psychotherapist and counsellor with five years' clinical experience and BACP registration. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence and helps people talk through anxiety, stress, depression and relationship difficulties. Fiona also supports people coping with trauma, grief, self-esteem struggles and questions about identity and intimacy.

She uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. Fiona draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.

Background and approach

She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness and narrative tools are brought in to help people slow down and make different choices. Fiona has experience working with people affected by sexual abuse and with those facing fertility and pregnancy-related issues.

She has supported people after traumatic births, stillbirth and baby loss, including partners. She has also worked with clients from medical professions and emergency services settings. Sessions aim to be practical and grounded.

Fiona helps people identify the problems that cause day-to-day distress and tries simple steps that can improve sleep, reduce overthinking and ease panic. She encourages self-awareness and looks for workable strategies that fit each person’s life. Fiona offers therapy in English to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

She works through online formats that suit different schedules and preferences. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions that fit their needs.

Approach and online therapy options

Fiona draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. This helps when people notice repeated relationship difficulties or feel easily triggered by close connections. She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behaviour changes to ease anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona treats this as a collaboration - she will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can try different techniques and agree what feels most helpful moving forward.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions are useful when non-verbal cues matter, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins or times when not being on camera helps. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and medical appointments while keeping the focus on practical steps and reflection.
