A lot of people worry they won’t know what to say in counselling.
They feel pressure to explain everything clearly or have a specific reason for coming.

You don’t need the right words.
You don’t need a plan.
You can start exactly where you are.

You’re welcome to get in touch when it feels right.🌿

Many people wait until they reach a breaking point before asking for help.

They tell themselves things aren’t “bad enough yet”, or that they should be able to cope on their own.
But support doesn’t have to be earned through crisis.

You’re allowed to ask for help because things feel heavy.
Because you’re tired.
Because something doesn’t feel right.

You don’t need to justify it or compare your experience to anyone else’s.

You’re welcome to get in touch when it feels right.

Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic.

Sometimes it’s quiet.
Sometimes it’s exhausting.
Sometimes it’s hidden so well that no one else can see it — and you might even question it yourself.

But that doesn’t make it any less real.

If this resonates, you’re not broken.
It often means your nervous system has been working really hard for a long time.

Support is available when you’re ready.

Anxiety doesn’t always look the way people expect it to.

For some people, it’s loud and obvious.
For others, it’s quieter, overthinking, tension in the body, constant worry, or always feeling “on edge”.

You might still appear calm on the outside.
You might still be doing what needs to be done.
That doesn’t mean anxiety isn’t affecting you.

If this resonates, there’s nothing wrong with you.
It’s a sign that your nervous system has been working hard for a long time.

You’re welcome to get in touch when it feels right. 🌿

often hear people say, “I’m coping, so I shouldn’t complain.”

But coping and struggling can exist at the same time.
You can be getting through the day, meeting expectations, and still finding things hard underneath it all. 🌺

Struggling doesn’t mean you’re failing.
It doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful, weak, or not trying hard enough.
It often means you’ve been carrying more than people realise.

You don’t need to reach a breaking point to deserve support.
And you don’t have to minimise how you’re feeling just because you’re managing. 💐🌼

I know first-hand how powerful animals can be for our mental health 🐾

There are days when words feel heavy, energy is low, or emotions feel hard to untangle. And in those moments, my dog offers something very simple but deeply meaningful - presence.

No judgement.
No fixing.
Just quiet companionship.

I see how animals can help regulate our nervous system, ease anxiety, and remind us to slow down and breathe. Sometimes it’s the routine of caring for them, sometimes it’s the comfort of sitting beside them, and sometimes it’s just knowing you’re not alone.

As a counsellor, I know the theory.
As a human, I feel the impact.

Mental health support doesn’t always look like talking. Sometimes it looks like muddy paws, fresh air, and a loyal friend by your side 💛

A little bit about me 🤍

I’m Fiona, an author, counsellor and psychotherapist, and I work with children, young people and adults.
No two people are the same, so therapy with me isn’t one-size-fits-all.

I’m a CBT and integrative therapist, which means I draw on different approaches and adapt my work to suit you – whether that’s working with individuals, couples or families.

Alongside my private practice, I also work as a school counsellor two days a week, supporting children in a setting that feels familiar and safe to them.

I offer both online and face-to-face sessions, and I’m always learning – I genuinely love CPD and building my ‘toolbox’ so I can meet clients where they are.

If anxiety feels like it’s taking over your thoughts…
If your nervous system feels constantly “on edge”…

If you’re neurodivergent and tired of feeling misunderstood…
Or if you’re carrying grief, uncertainty, or trauma around fertility, pregnancy, or baby loss. you don’t have to hold it alone 💛

I’m now offering face-to-face counselling sessions from a beautiful, calm room at The Gap in Warwick a space designed to feel safe, welcoming, and grounding.

I support:
✨ Teenagers and young adults
✨ Adults struggling with anxiety or overwhelm, stress, depression
✨ Neurodivergent clients
✨ Those navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy, or baby loss
✨ Medical professionals and people in uniformed services who are used to coping for everyone else

Availability:
🕯 Monday daytime & evenings – face to face
🌿 Friday mornings – face to face
💻 Additional online sessions available

Counselling can be a space where you don’t have to explain yourself, stay strong, or “push through”, just a place to pause, reflect, and feel supported at your own pace.

It’s a place to learn about what drives your anxiety and also how the past may have informed how you think and react now.

If this speaks to you, you’re very welcome to message me or visit

🌍World Mental Health Day 🌏

Even tangled minds can find balance.

Like many people, I’ve had my own quiet struggles. Moments when life has felt overwhelming, and I’ve had to pause, breathe and remind myself it’s okay to ask for help.

This day is an important reminder that we all have mental health, and looking after it matters just as much as our physical health.

Talking, sharing and reaching out can make such a difference, none of us are meant to do this alone.

Take time to talk. Take back a little control. 🪴

❤️ ❤️

You don’t have to have it all together. Healing isn’t about perfection, it’s about giving yourself permission to rest, to feel and to begin again 💜

🌟 Every dream is possible 🌟

Many of you know me as a counsellor, and some of you also know that I became disabled a few years ago.
At first, I thought it meant the end of certain dreams,but I’ve learned that with a few adjustments, life can still be full of possibilities.

I’ve adapted my counselling work, I travel in my own way, and last November one of my biggest dreams came true… I became a children’s author! 📖✨

Life doesn’t always look the way we imagine, but that doesn’t mean our goals or passions have to disappear. Sometimes we just have to take a different path to get there.

💛 If you’re going through changes or challenges and need a little support, I offer a free 20-minute chat to see how counselling might help.

Because no matter what life throws at us - there’s always a way forward, and your dreams still matter.
