Fiona Wetherell, BACP

Fiona Wetherell is a qualified counsellor with eight years of clinical experience, specialising in trauma, relationships, anxiety, stress and low self-esteem. She has worked extensively at a rape crisis centre supporting men, women and children who have experienced rape or sexual abuse, and later provided counselling in women’s refuges for women and children affected by domestic abuse. Her practice draws on integrative training, allowing her to combine different theoretical approaches and tailor the work to each person’s needs.

Fiona places the therapeutic relationship at the centre of her work, offering warmth and empathy while creating a non-judgmental space in which clients can explore difficult thoughts and feelings. She helps people gently trace origins of distress through consideration of early life experiences, with the aim of identifying unhelpful patterns and finding practical ways to make change. Sessions are typically 45 minutes long, and Fiona offers flexible scheduling so clients may choose weekly, fortnightly or monthly appointments.

She holds BACP credentials - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and works in English in the United Kingdom. Fiona aims to make clients feel heard and understood while supporting them to make sense of their experiences and move forward.
