About Frances

Frances Dennehy is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with people who bring relationship strain, family difficulties, parenting challenges, anger and related issues such as anxiety, depression and grief. Frances also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, LGBT concerns and changes in work or life circumstances.

Frances works in a client-centred way. She focuses on building a steady, respectful relationship where difficult thoughts and feelings can be talked about without judgment. Sessions aim to help people understand what drives their reactions and where recurring conflicts come from.

Her approach is direct and practical. Conversations are used to notice patterns in thinking and behaviour and to try out different ways of responding. Clients may explore communication habits, triggers for anger, or ways to manage stress and low mood in everyday life.

Frances pays attention to the impact of trauma and abuse on current relationships and coping. She also helps people address issues around self-esteem, intimacy and grief. Parenting concerns and pregnancy or childbirth related stress are part of her work.

She invites people to take small, manageable steps rather than big overhauls. The focus is on clearer communication, reducing repeated conflict, and increasing control over difficult feelings. To begin, she asks people to use the site matching process and book a first session so they can set practical goals together.

How Frances applies client-centred work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. It involves listening closely, reflecting what someone says, and helping them make sense of their feelings. This approach can help with relationship conflicts, anger that keeps reappearing, low mood and stress by clarifying what matters to the client.

Working online with a client-centred focus means Frances will use conversation to notice patterns and test small changes. She will collaborate with the client to decide which steps feel manageable and relevant to their goals. The pair work out how best to approach issues like communication problems, triggers for anger, or parenting stress together.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy week, allow a quicker check-in during a workday and reduce travel time. These practical benefits make it simpler to keep up with regular appointments and to apply new ways of responding in everyday situations.
