About Fiona

Fiona Hazelden is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has 15 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, motivation and confidence. Her practice also addresses anger and related concerns, including difficulties with sleep, eating and coping with life changes.

Fiona keeps sessions direct and practical. She listens to what is happening now and helps people notice patterns that keep problems repeating. Conversations focus on clear steps to reduce overwhelming feelings and improve daily functioning rather than on labels or jargon.

Her background includes many years helping people recover after trauma and manage strong emotions. Fiona uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts the work to the person’s needs. She pays attention to how past experiences affect current relationships and reactions.

In sessions she works on building skills for managing intense feelings, improving communication, and handling stress at work and at home. She also supports people struggling with addictions, bipolar mood swings, ADHD and compassion fatigue, using practical tools to manage symptoms and setbacks.

Fiona offers therapy in English and accepts international clients. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment using the See online therapy options button.

Approaches used online and what they help with

Fiona uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage strong emotions and regain control of daily life. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaching practical skills to respond differently; this is useful for anxiety, anger and stress. Another approach pays attention to how past trauma affects present reactions and helps people develop safer ways of relating and regulating emotions; this can support work on abuse, grief and attachment issues.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients are involved in choosing which methods feel workable for their situation and pace.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering options that suit quieter or lower-bandwidth situations. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in remote sessions, helping you practise skills between meetings.
