About Fiona
Fiona Wetherell is a counsellor with eight years of experience supporting people affected by trauma and relationship harm. She worked for a rape crisis centre providing help to men, women and children who have experienced rape or sexual abuse. She has also provided counselling in women’s refuges for those impacted by domestic abuse.
Fiona trained in an integrative way, which means she draws on different theories to suit each person.
Background and approach
She places strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship and on being warm and non-judgemental. In sessions she helps people talk through troubling thoughts and feelings and gently trace how earlier life experiences may still affect them now. Her work commonly addresses stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression alongside relationship difficulties and trauma-related issues.
She also supports people concerned about abandonment, attachment, body image, fertility, cancer-related distress and separation or divorce. Fiona listens for patterns of behaviour and helps people notice options for change. Sessions are normally 45 minutes long and she offers flexibility about frequency - weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
Fiona aims to provide a contained space where clients feel properly heard and understood. She invites people to move at a pace that feels manageable. Fiona is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She works in the United Kingdom and conducts therapy in English. Before booking, check current session options to confirm arrangements and times.
