About Fiona
Fiona Grant is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and related difficulties. She speaks plainly and works with clients on practical steps to feel calmer and more able to cope. Her approach aims to reduce overwhelm and restore everyday functioning.
With four years of experience, Fiona often uses tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These methods help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and choose values-based actions.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped to the needs of each person rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Fiona supports people dealing with stress, depression, addictions, grief and anger as well as concerns around sleep, eating and self-esteem. She also helps those facing career change, parenting strain, compassion fatigue and the challenges of long-term physical conditions.
Relationship and intimacy issues are also within her focus. She works with people affected by attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care experiences, neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome, and a range of personality and behavioural issues. Fiona aims to be respectful and non-judgemental, listening first to understand each person’s priorities.
Practical techniques and clear goals feature in her sessions. Fiona tailors conversations and exercises so they fit day-to-day life. She welcomes people from the United Kingdom and internationally, holding sessions in English.
Therapeutic approaches for online anxiety and stress support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them. It helps clients identify what matters most and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are strong. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses straightforward exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and build new habits that reduce anxiety and improve sleep, mood and everyday functioning. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit your situation. Together you will choose which techniques to continue based on what helps most. Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls suit in-depth conversations and visual work, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text messaging allows brief updates between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or travel while still using ACT and CBT strategies in everyday life.Questions people ask
