About Marion
Marion Fensome is a therapeutic counsellor and hypnotherapist with 14 years of experience in the United Kingdom. She holds a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a Diploma in Hypnotherapy, and she works from a compassionate, non-judgemental stance. Marion focuses on helping people who are coping with stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem.
She also provides support around LGBT issues and sexuality. Marion uses straightforward conversations to help people make sense of difficult feelings.
Background and approach
She offers practical tools from stress management and mindfulness alongside talking therapies. Sessions often involve noticing thought patterns, trying simple mindfulness exercises and exploring how past experiences affect current emotions. She also brings experience with trauma awareness and bereavement, including support for grief after suicide.
Marion has training in CBT journaling and thought records, which she may use to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes. Her background includes work as a meditation and mindfulness teacher, so she often teaches breathing and grounding techniques. People who prefer a calm, patient pace often find Marion helpful.
She aims to co-create a plan that suits each persons needs and daily life. Marion encourages realistic steps rather than big overnight fixes, and she checks in with people about what is working. If someone wants to begin, the usual process is to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapists availability.

How Marion works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marion will discuss different methods and help decide what fits best for the client's needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative choice and may change as therapy progresses.
If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a routine. It can also let someone try techniques such as guided relaxation or mindfulness from wherever they are, while working with a registered or accredited professional to tailor the work to everyday life.
