About Fiona
Fiona Platts is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and relationship difficulties. She holds BACP accreditation, and brings three years of direct client work in private practice and online settings. Fiona focuses on supporting people through life changes and difficult feelings in a calm, steady way.
Her practice aims to help people spot patterns and find choices that feel right for them. Sessions are paced to each person’s comfort and needs. Fiona tailors the work to practical concerns like parenting strain, career pressures, body image and blended family issues.
She also supports people navigating loss, abuse, separation and the emotional aftermath of frightening events, including coping with natural or human-caused disaster. Trauma-focused ideas are used alongside person-centred listening to address painful memories and ongoing stress.
Existential themes are part of her work too, helping people face big questions about meaning, direction and commitment. This can be useful when life changes leave someone feeling empty or stuck.
Fiona describes therapy as a collaborative process. She offers short-term coaching-style support as well as longer conversations for deeper issues. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and practical scheduling is done through the site’s matching and booking system.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Fiona draws on client-centred work that focuses on listening and understanding. This approach helps people feel heard and supports them in finding their own solutions to anxiety, stress and relationship concerns.She also uses trauma-focused ideas to address painful memories and ongoing reaction patterns after abuse or distressing events. These techniques aim to reduce overwhelming symptoms and help people regain a sense of control over everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide what feels most helpful. The process is collaborative and paced to how comfortable someone feels.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy week and saving travel time.
