Fiona Wallace, BACP

Fiona Wallace is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, panic and grief. She works with those facing issues around intimacy, relationships, self‑esteem, body image and food concerns. Fiona also supports people dealing with addictions, life direction, motivation and the practical strains of long‑term health conditions.

Fiona has five years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She believes people already hold many strengths and that therapy is a way to make those strengths clearer. In sessions she helps clients step back from problems that feel overwhelming and find new angles and choices.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. Fiona listens to what matters to each person and tailors conversations to fit their situation. Typical work can include talking through painful memories, improving communication patterns, building self‑esteem and finding ways to cope with chronic pain or illness.

She also offers support around less talked‑about areas such as attachment, kink and non‑traditional relationship styles, polyamory and guilt or shame linked to sexuality and identity. Fiona aims to make the therapy room a place to test new ways of thinking and behaving, then practise them in everyday life.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges that beginning therapy takes courage. Fiona encourages people to move at a pace that feels manageable and to focus on small, steady changes that lead to relief and clearer direction.

How Fiona uses therapeutic techniques online

Fiona works with evidence‑based therapeutic techniques that help people change thoughts and habits that keep them stuck. One common approach she uses is focused conversation to identify unhelpful thinking and build clearer, calmer ways of responding to stress and panic. This helps with anxiety, low mood and reacting less to sudden fear.

Another approach is practical behavioural work that looks at routines, eating patterns and small steps to manage chronic pain or long‑term illness. This often involves noticing what gets in the way and trying small, achievable experiments to build confidence and better daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Fiona will work together with each person to agree what feels most useful, adjusting methods as goals and needs evolve. The work is collaborative and paced to what the client can manage.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check‑ins when schedules are tight, or offering audio‑first conversations for lower bandwidth or for people who prefer not to be on camera. Many people find this flexibility helps them keep up with regular sessions and apply what they practise between meetings.
