About Ffyona
Ffyona Duncan is a counsellor who works from a narrative perspective and draws on attachment and client-centred ideas. She has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds the NCPS credential. Ffyona focuses on helping people make sense of their story and find strengths they can use right now.
She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, low self-esteem, motivation and confidence.
Background and approach
Her work includes support for grief, trauma and addiction-related issues as listed in her practice areas. Ffyona believes clients are the experts on their own lives. Sessions are aimed at listening closely to what matters to each person and then shaping conversations around their goals.
She uses straightforward language and practical conversation rather than technical jargon. In practice she draws on attachment-based thinking to look at patterns in relationships, and on client-centred principles to keep the person’s experience central. Narrative ideas help people reframe difficult events and see different possibilities for moving forward.
Her approach suits people who want a collaborative, respectful space to reflect and plan next steps. She invites people to take small, concrete steps between sessions and to notice the changes those steps create.

Online session options
How narrative and attachment ideas work online
Ffyona uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reshape the stories that frame their experience. This approach looks at how events and labels fit into a person's life story, and helps people notice different meanings and choices. Attachment-based ideas are used to spot recurring relationship patterns and to consider how early bonds influence current reactions. These perspectives can help with anxiety, relationship stress and feelings of disconnection.She combines these approaches with a client-centred stance that keeps the client's priorities first. Finding the right approach is a shared process - together they will try ways of working and adapt the focus depending on goals and what feels helpful. The therapist will invite feedback and tweak the methods as the work progresses so the plan fits each person's needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls suit those with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and messaging options allow shorter check-ins or written reflection. These formats let people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping a steady therapeutic pace.
