About Frances

Frances Dallison is a UK-based counsellor with 13 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. She has worked extensively with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, abandonment, domestic violence and abuse, bereavement and grief, persistent low mood, and work-related stress. Her practice is built on a flexible, integrative model that adapts to each client’s needs, drawing on established therapeutic traditions to tailor sessions for practical understanding and meaningful change.

Frances describes her manner as warm and compassionate, creating a space where clients can explore underlying patterns and make choices that lead to a more satisfying life. She draws on psychodynamic concepts to help uncover long-standing themes in relationships and emotional life, and on cognitive-behavioural techniques to support concrete changes in thinking and behaviour. Frances is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is the professional body for counselling in the United Kingdom, and she uses her training and experience to guide clients toward clearer self-awareness and practical coping strategies.

Integrative Approaches for Online Support

Frances draws on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms such as anxiety and low mood. CBT is a structured, goal-focused approach that supports changes in behaviour and thinking to improve day-to-day functioning. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to explore how past experiences and relationship patterns influence current feelings and choices, which can be especially helpful for clients working with attachment issues, repeated relationship difficulties, or a sense of emptiness. Attachment-based concepts are used to understand how early bonds shape present-day reactions and to strengthen healthier relating in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Frances works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her interventions as the work evolves. Clients are invited to discuss what feels most helpful so that therapy remains a shared endeavour.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call and phone allow face-to-face conversation from different locations, while live chat and text-based messaging provide alternative ways to communicate when that feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access registered professionals from different places, supporting continuity of care and timely contact when needed.
