About Fiona
Fiona Adams is a BACP-registered psychotherapist and counsellor with five years' experience. She listens closely and helps people talk through anxiety, stress, low mood and relationship worries. She also supports those facing trauma, grief and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Fiona uses a mixture of approaches to suit each person. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot and change unhelpful thinking. She also uses attachment-focused work to look at how early relationships affect present patterns. Mindfulness and motivational techniques help with managing strong feelings in the moment.
Her background includes time with a sexual abuse charity and specialist work around fertility, pregnancy and post-pregnancy traumas. This includes supporting people after traumatic births, stillbirth and baby loss, and working with partners where appropriate. She has also worked with clients from medical and emergency-service backgrounds.
In sessions she aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space for people to be understood. Conversations focus on identifying what causes distress and on practical steps to reduce it. Fiona uses straightforward language and clear tasks so people can try things between meetings.
She is based in the United Kingdom and works in English. Her practice includes support for coping with major life events, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster, and other changes that can strain wellbeing.
How Fiona uses therapeutic approaches online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways in close relationships and can be useful for issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties and relationship problems.Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers simple strategies to test and change unhelpful thoughts, which can ease anxiety, depression and overthinking.
Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and manage strong emotions. It can be used alongside other approaches to support sleep, mood and coping in difficult moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then try methods that suit the person's needs. This happens as a collaborative process so plans can change as progress is made.
