About Fiona
Fiona Hazelden is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are feeling anxious, stressed, low in mood, or struggling after loss. She also supports those dealing with relationship challenges, confidence issues, addictions, and matters related to LGBT identity.
Fiona aims to treat everyone with sensitivity and respect, and she encourages people to take the first step towards getting help. Her way of working is practical and tailored to each person.
Background and approach
Fiona listens first to understand the immediate problem and what a person hopes to change. Together they agree small, realistic steps to try between sessions. She adapts conversations and plans to suit different needs and situations rather than using a single method for everyone.
Over her career she has worked across a wide range of concerns including trauma, grief, anger, sleep problems, eating and body image, ADHD, and long-term illness or pain. That breadth gives her experience in noticing patterns and remembering helpful strategies from similar cases. Fiona draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions and track progress.
Fiona is a BACP counsellor, which indicates registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers sessions in English and accepts clients from outside the UK. Fees vary with location and therapist availability and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, clients select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to availability. Fiona emphasises a collaborative process and practical steps that can fit into daily life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used by Fiona are practical and goal-focused. One approach emphasises breaking problems into manageable steps and setting small, achievable goals between sessions; this helps with anxiety, low mood, and motivation by building steady progress. Another common method involves trauma-informed, paced conversations that allow people to name and make sense of difficult experiences while learning coping strategies for distressing symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fiona will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning includes checking what feels helpful and adjusting techniques over time.
If you are considering online therapy, check the available session formats before booking since they are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also make access simpler for people living outside the UK. Registered or accredited professionals can discuss practical arrangements so sessions fit around work, family, and daily routines.
