How Fiona Helps
Fiona Walks the Talk
Fiona stays active, is conscious of her diet, and practices mindfulness.
These are specific things you'll see Fiona doing each week, and you can do this too.
Fiona is experienced, putting the 'health' into mental health.
Building Strength Without Dependency
Fiona’s goal is to support you in building resilience and strength. Yet, this can be done in a way that really builds your skills, without creating dependency.
Once you reach your goals, you’ll be ready for new challenges on your own.
Every milestone is celebrated, and when the time comes, you can confidently embrace your future.
Resources You’ll Love
Fiona's here to help you get useful resources you’ll love to use. Many of her clients love to learn from podcasts.
Here are some of Fiona's previous clients' favourite podcasts:
- Mel Robbins – Focuses on judgment, shame, money, and emotional/ mental health.
- Brene Brown – Talks about shame, unlocking us, and our authentic self vs self-image,
- Jay Shetty – Discusses mindset, focus, concentration, brain hacks, reverse aging, and habit building or breaking.
Support in the Real World
Fiona comes to you.
You deserve support where it matters most — in your everyday life.
Whether it's managing mental health or setting life goals, meaningful steps forward are possible with Fiona.
Your journey is about taking those steps with someone beside you, staying accountable, and celebrating each achievement along the way.
Fiona can be that someone for you.
Take the Wheel - You're in Control
Taking control of your mental health recovery is like driving a bus.
You're driving your bus. You don't let other people tell you how to drive your bus.
You don't let them make you sit in the middle of the bus... or make you sit at the back seat.
You wouldn't want to allow other people to kick you off your own bus.
Let's learn how to be confident in our own drivers' seat.
How Fiona Helps Clients Achieve Their Goals
Fiona values face-to-face contact more than phone calls or texts. She comes to you, meeting you where you are.
Fiona will focus on the most important goals in your plan and create a step-by-step, measurable approach.
What a Typical Session Looks Like
Let's identify the goals, define an endpoint, and create a visual step guide. Follow-ups happen weekly to maintain accountability.
Sessions are deliberately time-limited (one or two hours), and clients are informed up-front. At the end of each session, we summarise progress and confirm understanding.
Clients take ownership of their goals and can text Fiona in between sessions for guidance.
Fiona’s Promise to You
Fiona’s promise is to offer support that empowers you without creating dependency.
Her focus is on helping you build your capacity, so you can move forward confidently and independently.
You'll always have someone by your side until you’re ready to take on new adventures on your own terms.
Focus on Your Strengths
Your strengths are the key to your progress.
Everyone has unique talents, and Fiona’s focus is on uncovering and building on those strengths.
Real, lasting changes happen by using the skills you already have, empowering you to achieve your goals and take control of your journey.

Therapy in a Real Life Context
