About Frances
Frances Fraser is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She has eight years of professional experience and uses a straightforward, person-centred style. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious or stuck.
Frances aims to make starting therapy as simple and hopeful as possible. Frances believes each person knows their own story best. She listens without judgement and helps people notice their strengths.
Sessions are conversational and paced to suit each person’s needs.
Background and approach
The aim is to find practical ways forward rather than rely on jargon. Common matters Frances supports include parenting pressures, family conflict and relationship worries that affect intimacy and trust. She also helps with low mood, confidence, motivation and coping with life changes.
Practical concerns such as money stress, career strain and addictions are within her focus too. Her main way of working is client-centred therapy. That means Frances follows the person’s lead and responds to what matters most to them.
She offers a calm space to talk through painful feelings and to try out different ways of coping. Sessions can work well for people facing attachment or abandonment wounds, those dealing with family of origin issues, and people needing help with forgiveness, guilt or shame. Frances also supports those exploring body image, control issues and isolation.
She welcomes international clients and runs talks in English.

Client-centred care delivered online
Frances works primarily in a client-centred way, which means she listens closely and follows what matters to the person in front of her. This approach helps when someone feels overwhelmed by anxiety, depressed, unsure about parenting, or dealing with family wounds. It focuses on building understanding and drawing out the person’s own resources rather than imposing a fixed plan.That same client-centred attitude guides how she uses online tools. Sessions are collaborative - the therapist and client decide together which way of working suits best. If a different style is needed later, they check in and adapt the approach to match changing goals and preferences.
Online therapy with Frances is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversations and reading non-verbal cues. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for brief updates, practical problem solving and people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options aim to make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and different time zones while keeping the therapeutic focus on the person’s needs.
