About Ffyona
Ffyona Duncan is a counsellor registered with the NCPS in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and family conflicts, and she also supports people with motivation, self-esteem and confidence issues.
She sees people who are dealing with depression, grief, addiction and trauma. She also addresses intimacy-related problems, sleep and eating concerns, anger and workplace stress. Her background includes helping clients with life transitions and coping strategies for ongoing pressures.
Ffyona uses a combination of practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thinking patterns and on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship difficulties. She also uses client-centred listening and mindfulness tools to slow things down and clarify what matters most to each person.
Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings. She works with clients to set manageable goals and to test small changes that fit daily life. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at making problems easier to handle over time.
Her approach treats the person as the expert in their own story. She helps people spot strengths they already have and build on them. To begin, she asks about the current difficulties and practical aims, then suggests ways to work towards those goals.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Ffyona uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and then tests practical behaviour changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and everyday habits that make life harder. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current responses and can help with trust, intimacy and family conflict. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on clear listening and reflecting so people can find their own solutions and clarify their goals.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try first. Adjustments are made as work progresses so the sessions remain focused and useful.
