Ffyona Duncan, NCPS

Ffyona Duncan is a counsellor who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits to help people manage stress and anxiety. She works in a clear, down-to-earth way and encourages clients to use their own strengths when tackling difficult moments. Ffyona holds NCPS registration in the United Kingdom and brings three years of professional experience to her practice.

Her approach centres on understanding how attachment styles and personal stories shape current challenges. She uses client-centred conversations to help people feel heard and to build practical steps forward. Cognitive behavioural ideas are often used to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try different habits in daily life.

Ffyona also draws on mindfulness and Jungian ideas to help people reflect on deeper themes, such as identity, meaning and values. These methods are adapted to each person's pace and needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. She emphasises small, concrete changes that can make everyday life easier.

Common concerns she addresses include relationship strain, family conflict, low self-esteem, grief and managing life changes. She also supports people facing addiction, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related difficulties and intimacy issues. Clients can expect straightforward talk, practical exercises and an encouraging stance throughout therapy.

Ffyona works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. To start, she asks people to reflect on what they want to change and then helps shape realistic, short-term goals personalised to each situation.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps when people notice repeated relationship struggles, codependency or trust issues and want to change those patterns. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building on the person's own resources. It helps people who need a steady, non-judgemental space to talk through worries and decisions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and tests small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety and improve daily habits.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try. This collaborative process means plans are adapted as progress is made and new needs emerge.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting talks into busy days and reducing travel time, which makes it easier to keep regular appointments. Different session arrangements may suit different people, so please confirm the current session options before booking. The focus is on making therapy fit everyday life through clear goals, short practical exercises and regular check-ins rather than promising a specific format.
