About Frances

Counsellor Frances Dennehy is a member of NCPS with four years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with relationship problems, family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, anxiety and related difficulties. Sessions are offered in English and Frances focuses on giving people room to talk things through without judgement.

Frances works in a client-centred way. That means she listens closely and follows what each person brings to sessions. Conversations focus on feelings, thoughts and behaviours that cause distress, and on practical ways to notice and change patterns that no longer help.

She supports people with a wide range of concerns including grief, addiction, eating issues, anger, self-esteem, career worries and coping with life changes. Frances also helps where communication has broken down, or where guilt, shame or compassion fatigue are present. She can talk about pregnancy and childbirth related stress and about intimacy-related problems.

The counselling approach aims to build a trusting working relationship. Frances encourages steady exploration of what you want and what gets in the way. Sessions typically involve talking, reflecting and trying small, realistic steps between meetings.

Client-centred counselling and remote sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than on techniques. The counsellor listens closely, reflects back what is said, and supports people to name their feelings and choices. This approach suits relationship concerns, parenting stress, grief and emotional recovery after trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Frances will discuss what feels most helpful and adjust the way she works to match your needs and goals. This is a collaborative process and she will check in as the work continues.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions without video if that helps you engage. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to keep continuity of care when face-to-face meetings are difficult.
