Fiona Kennedy uses a collaborative, client-centred approach to help people feel understood and make steady progress. She holds a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) accreditation and draws on five years of practical experience to guide conversations that matter. She offers space for people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression.

She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, grief, addiction and relationship concerns. Sessions aim to build everyday skills that help manage mood, panic and overwhelm.

Background and approach

Fiona often works with issues linked to attachment, abandonment and intimacy. She helps people untangle patterns that cause isolation, shame or repeated conflict. Practical strategies sit alongside reflective work so clients learn and practise new ways of coping.

Her style is calm and conversational. She moves at a pace chosen with each person and focuses on what is useful right now. This can include short-term tools for sleep, anger or work stress and longer-term work on self-love and life purpose.

Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or messaging which can suit different schedules and needs. Fiona accepts international clients and conducts therapy in English.

Attachment and Client-Centred Approaches Online

Fiona uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past relationships shape current reactions and connections. This approach helps when patterns of abandonment, trust or intimacy keep repeating and when people want to understand why they respond a certain way.

She also works in a client-centred way which places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That means listening closely, following what matters most to the person and choosing goals together rather than directing the process.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona discusses what matters to each person and adapts methods so therapy fits their needs, goals and preferences. She treats the choice of approach as a shared decision and reviews progress together as therapy continues.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for a face-to-face feel, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is handy for shorter check-ins and messaging lets people write between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family routines and different time zones while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
