About Ffyona
Ffyona Duncan is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and family conflict, and also supports those managing self-esteem, motivation and confidence. Her approach is practical and straightforward and she treats anger as one of the issues clients bring to sessions.
She starts from the view that each person knows their own story. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting and helping people notice patterns that get in the way. Conversations aim to make small, usable changes rather than long lists of advice. Practical tools and calmer ways of responding are introduced where helpful.
Ffyona draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current reactions. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts. Mindfulness practices feature sometimes to help with stress and impulse control.
People come with a mix of concerns such as grief, addiction, parenting pressures or work stress. She also supports those dealing with intimacy issues, eating or sleeping problems, and life transitions like separation or fertility worries. Anger, jealousy and resentment are described as common subjects she addresses.
Her work is conversational and client-centred. She encourages practical experiments between sessions and checks in on what helps. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches in online sessions
Ffyona works with attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in her online practice. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape present reactions and helps people notice how those patterns appear in current interactions. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking or behaving to reduce stress and reactivity.She also uses mindfulness practices to support stress management and to help with impulse control when anger or anxiety are present. These practices are short and practical, aimed at giving tools people can use in everyday moments rather than lengthy exercises.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That selection can change as work progresses and as real-life results show what helps.
Session formats are not listed explicitly in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help people maintain regular contact and apply what they learn between sessions.
