Fiona Gray

I am a Person-Centred Clinical Counsellor and Supervisor.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental, anti-discriminatory service that is open to all, including those who suspect they may be neurodivergent but do not have a formal diagnosis.

About me

I have a master's degree in clinical counselling from the University of Chester. I have worked as a Clinical Counselor within an NHS Psychological Therapies Service for several years while delivering a private practice.

My background is in the Performing Arts. I lectured in Contemporary Dance before becoming a High School Teacher. Working through my own adverse childhood experiences and supporting students in a pastoral capacity led me to a career in counselling, which is both rewarding and life-enhancing for me.

Issues I worked with:

I have helped people to work through the aftermath of coercive controlling relationships, complex grief, intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, anxiety, depression, unexpressed or numb emotions, extreme irritation and anger, fear of connection, painful separation and divorce, domestic violence, gambling, alcoholic addiction, disordered eating, body image issues and more.

How I work

My counselling service is personal to you and the therapeutic relationship we create together. I listen with the aim of understanding how your experiences impacts your life, without making assumptions or trying to fit you into a formula. I am an interactive person-centred therapist, I will be in there with you, without getting in the way of your thoughts, processes, and insights. You will feel supported and held by me as your confident companion through the more painful aspects of the therapeutic process. I will be your ally, as you connect with feelings you may have been avoiding or felt too difficult to explore or examine on your own.
