Fiona Brown

Fiona Brown is an AASW social worker with seven years of professional experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for stress, anxiety and sleep problems. Fiona writes in a straightforward way and respects the courage it takes to start therapy.

She uses a person-centred approach, helping people name what matters and build on strengths. Fiona often combines this with cognitive behavioural strategies to help change unhelpful thoughts and routines. She also draws on attachment ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns.

Fiona works with common life problems such as relationship strain, parenting questions and career stress. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, addictions and mood difficulties like depression and bipolar. Sleeping difficulties and intimacy-related concerns are part of her focus areas as well.

Her sessions tend to be practical and collaborative. Fiona helps people set small, achievable goals and try new strategies between sessions. She encourages simple routines that make day-to-day life easier, such as sleep hygiene steps and brief mindfulness practices.

Fiona believes each person is the expert on their own story. She listens without judgement and aims to help people build confidence, motivation and better ways of coping. If someone is ready to take the next step, she commends them for beginning the process.
