About Fiona
Fiona Adams is a psychotherapist and counsellor with five years' experience. She holds BACP accreditation and works in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression and relationship difficulties, among other concerns.
Fiona uses a mix of person-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and attachment-informed ways of working. She also draws on mindfulness and acceptance methods to help people manage overwhelming thoughts and strong emotions. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside reflective conversation.
She has worked in a sexual abuse charity and with clients facing fertility, pregnancy and post-pregnancy trauma including traumatic birth, stillbirth and baby loss. Fiona has also supported people with long-term health conditions and those working in medical and emergency services.
Her approach pays attention to how past relationships and early experiences can affect current reactions. That includes patterns linked to abandonment, attachment issues, and blended family concerns. She uses narrative and motivational approaches to help people reframe difficult stories and set achievable goals.
Fiona works with issues such as eating and sleeping problems, grief, intimacy concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood challenges and career stress. People can expect a straightforward, respectful conversation aimed at understanding what drives their anger and finding manageable ways to respond differently.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can help
Fiona frequently uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical alternatives. CBT is useful for anger linked to anxiety, work stress or negative self-talk.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current responses. This approach helps when anger is connected to fear of abandonment, trust issues or relational patterns.
Finding the right approach is something she works on with each person. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then agree which methods to try. That collaborative process can include a mix of skills practice, reflective work and short exercises between sessions.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins during a workday. Some formats require less use of video and are useful for shorter reviews or when bandwidth is limited.
