About Fiona

Fiona Wetherell is an experienced counsellor with eight years in the field. She trained with an integrative approach and draws on different theories to match support to individual needs. Fiona places strong value on the working relationship and on giving people a calm, non-judgemental space to talk.

Sessions typically last 45 minutes and she offers flexible scheduling to suit different rhythms of life. Fiona's background includes substantial work at a rape crisis centre and time in women’s refuges.

Background and approach

Those roles involved counselling people affected by sexual assault and by domestic abuse. That experience has shaped how she listens and responds to trauma, safety concerns and the effects of abusive relationships. Her way of working is practical and person-centred.

She helps people identify patterns that cause distress and traces how early life experiences may feed present problems. Conversations aim to make difficult thoughts and feelings easier to understand, not to rush change but to allow it to emerge. Fiona offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, so people can choose what feels most manageable.

She will agree a meeting cadence with each person - weekly, fortnightly or monthly - based on what suits them. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works from the United Kingdom. Sessions are carried out in English and she does not take international clients.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Fiona lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Fiona works in an integrative way, drawing on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit each person. She often combines talking therapies that look at how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviours, which can help with trauma, abuse and relationship concerns.

Another common strand is a person-centred focus where sessions emphasise listening, empathy and the therapeutic relationship. This approach helps people feel heard and gradually make sense of painful memories or patterns without feeling rushed.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss aims, preferences and practical needs, and then agree a way of working that fits those goals. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make access easier. Video suits conversations where non-verbal cues help, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits shorter check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, caring responsibilities or mobility limitations.
