About Fiona
Fiona Platts is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of client work. She has worked in private practice and online, supporting people through a range of difficulties including trauma, sexual abuse, stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief and depression. Fiona is listed with Anger among her focus areas and helps people who want to manage frustration, resentment or repeated outbursts.
Her way of working starts with listening and helping people describe what is happening in their life. She uses client-centred conversations to clarify what matters most and to make practical changes. Fiona also draws on existential ideas to look at values and choices, and trauma-focused methods when past harm affects daily coping.
Sessions are paced to suit each person. She encourages taking things slowly where needed and working at a speed that feels manageable. People can expect direct talk about current problems and steps to try between sessions.
Fiona often supports clients with family and parenting stresses, career pressure, body image concerns and issues around codependency and communication. She also works with grief, compassion fatigue and the fallout from separation or domestic violence.
Her approach aims to help people see their situation differently and find workable options for change. To begin a series of sessions, clients follow the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Fiona uses client-centred work to prioritise what the person wants to address. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting and supporting the client to make practical choices in their life. Existential therapy is used to look at values, responsibility and meaning, which can help when frustration or anger connects to deeper questions about life direction. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on the effects of past harm and practical ways to reduce its impact on daily functioning and relationships.Deciding which approach to use is part of the first meetings. Fiona will work collaboratively to identify goals, try different ways of working and adjust the focus as needs become clearer. The process is conversational and practical, with joint decisions about pace and next steps.
The original biography does not specify session formats here, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals including counsellors often use this flexibility to keep therapy manageable alongside everyday life.
