Fiona uses techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). She finds these approaches helpful for building coping skills, shifting unhelpful patterns, and increasing psychological flexibility in a relatively short time-frame.

Online Therapeutic Approaches and Support

Fiona commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people clarify personal values and take practical steps toward a more meaningful life while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an approach that focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT offers practical tools for managing anxiety, low mood, OCD symptoms, and stress, and supports measurable progress over time.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative part of the work. Fiona will listen to each person’s goals, preferences, and circumstances and help determine which methods or combination of methods are the best fit, adjusting the plan as needed.

Online therapy with Fiona is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier for people to access registered professionals from various locations and to continue therapy during life transitions or busy periods.
