Fiona Robertson
Supportive counsellor for grief and relationships
About Fiona
Fiona Robertson is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years of professional experience helping people navigate relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Fiona writes plainly and listens carefully to the details that matter to each person.
Fiona believes people know their story best and brings a supportive, strengths-focused attitude to sessions. She aims to help clients recognise what already works for them and to build new ways of coping when old strategies stop helping.
Background and approach
Fiona encourages small, practical steps that fit into everyday life. Her work includes support for people facing major life changes and separation. She also helps with issues such as adoption and foster care, attachment questions, blended family tensions, body image concerns and feelings of emptiness.
Fiona has experience with mood difficulties, phobias, dissociation, guilt, shame and isolation. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and simple tools that people can use between appointments. Fiona listens for patterns that keep problems going and then tests gentle alternatives with the person in front of her.
The focus is on what the client wants to change and on practical steps to get there. People who come to Fiona often want respectful, down-to-earth help rather than detailed theory. She offers a calm space to talk things through, reflect on options and try manageable changes.
Her aim is to help clients feel steadier and more able to handle life as it comes.

Practical approaches for online counselling
Fiona draws on well-established, evidence-based techniques that focus on present problems and usable skills. One approach helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments to test new beliefs; this can be useful for low mood, self-esteem and anxiety. Another approach centres on building coping strategies and routines to manage strong emotions and life transitions, which is often helpful after loss or during separation.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Fiona works with each person to understand their goals and preferences, then tries methods that fit those aims. She reviews progress together and adjusts the plan if something does not feel helpful.
Online therapy makes regular contact easier to arrange. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a simpler option when internet is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats offer flexibility for fitting therapy around work, childcare and travel.
