About Fiona

Fiona Grant is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with people who are dealing with anxiety, depression and addictions, and helps with motivation, self-esteem, confidence and relationship concerns. Sessions are aimed at practical steps and clearer ways to cope when life feels overwhelming.

Fiona uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) alongside Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and attachment-based ideas. She helps people name difficult emotions and spot the patterns that keep problems going. Conversations tend to focus on small, manageable changes and strategies to reduce distress.

She also supports people facing bereavement, intimacy-related issues, sleeping and eating problems, parenting strains and career stress. Other areas she works with include ADHD, compassion fatigue and coping with long-term health conditions. Fiona draws from several approaches to match the issue at hand.

Her style is centred on clear explanations and practical tools. Clients can expect to talk through what is happening now, try techniques between sessions, and review what helps. Fiona explains methods in everyday terms so people can use them at home.

People coming from adoption or foster care backgrounds, those managing caregiver stress, and clients dealing with body image or codependency concerns may also find relevant support. She welcomes international clients and offers sessions for those outside the UK.

How Fiona combines EFT, ACT and CBT in online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming emotions and the patterns that keep people stuck. It is often used when attachment or relationship patterns make emotions hard to understand. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify values and take small committed actions even when feelings are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will discuss which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and she will decide collaboratively what to try first. That discussion can include combining elements from the approaches above so practical tools and emotional clarity are both addressed.

The practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into busy lives, the option of shorter check-ins when needed and reduced travel time. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to use between-session exercises and to maintain continuity during life changes.
