About Frances

Frances Harry is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She supports those coping with life changes, grief, trauma and relationship strains. Frances also works with people affected by compassion fatigue and issues linked to prejudice and discrimination.

She uses a client-centred approach that places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That means the conversation follows what matters most to the individual, and the therapist reflects and responds rather than directing every step.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to build understanding and calm rather than quick fixes. Frances trained and practised in the United Kingdom and brings 16 years of professional counselling experience. Her work has included helping people with blended family issues, seasonal affective disorder and young adult concerns.

She also supports survivors of sexual assault and abuse. In sessions she focuses on listening carefully and creating space to talk without judgement. She encourages practical steps people can try between sessions, tailored to each situation.

People often come to sort out communication, regain confidence, or manage anxiety in everyday life. Frances accepts international clients and delivers therapy in English. She offers a range of online formats so people can choose what fits their schedules and comfort.

Getting started involves a short matching process and scheduling a time that works for the client.

How Frances' client-centred approach works online

Frances uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person's concerns at the centre of each session. This method involves the counsellor listening closely, reflecting back what they hear and helping the client explore their feelings and choices. It can be helpful for anxiety, stress and low self-esteem because it gives people space to make sense of their experience.

When working online she adapts the same attentive, non-judgemental stance as in person. The therapist and client will discuss goals and try different ways of working until they find what fits. Figuring out the best approach is collaborative and happens over the first few sessions rather than being decided in advance.

Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, so people can pick what suits their routine. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, while messaging and live chat make it easier to check in between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and accessible for different schedules and needs.
