How Fiona works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. It commonly helps with anxiety, depression, obsessive worries and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and decide together which methods fit best for a person’s needs and goals. This collaborative process can be adjusted as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel and allowing meetings during breaks or from different locations. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited and for using worksheets and exercises between sessions to keep momentum.
