About Frances
Frances Dennehy is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She helps people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship problems, family conflict, parenting stress and anger. Her work also covers grief, addictions, self-esteem issues and coping with life changes.
She uses a client-centred approach, which places the person and their experience at the heart of sessions. That means conversations focus on what matters to the individual, and Frances listens to how their feelings and behaviours affect daily life. Sessions aim to reduce the immediate strain of strong emotions and make space to think more clearly.
Practical difficulties such as communication problems, guilt and shame, and intimacy-related concerns are commonly discussed. Frances also supports those facing pregnancy and childbirth challenges, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related stress, and questions about identity including LGBT matters. She works with eating concerns and career-related strain too.
In sessions, she encourages people to name what is happening for them and to notice the patterns that feed anger or recurring conflict. The focus is on clear, concrete change rather than theoretical labels. Conversations are paced to match the person's needs and tolerance for difficult material.
To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. Frances uses a subscription model for sessions, which can be cancelled at any time. If international work is a consideration, she does not accept clients outside the UK at present.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the centre of treatment. It prioritises listening, reflection and the person's own goals. This approach can help with anger, relationship tensions, anxiety and grief by making space to talk through what matters most.The focus in sessions is practical and person-led. Frances encourages people to notice patterns in their feelings and behaviour, and to try small, manageable changes between sessions. That practical focus suits anyone wanting clearer ways to handle strong emotions or improve communication.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Frances will discuss options with each person and collaborate on what feels best based on needs, goals and preferences. This means the plan can shift as people learn more about what helps them.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity during life changes, and Frances frames online work to fit everyday routines rather than adding extra burden.
