Frances King , BACP, NCPS

Frances King is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, low self-esteem, sleep problems, parenting pressures, career changes and ADHD. Frances also helps with family conflict, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes.

Her approach is warm and conversational. She creates an empathic, non-judgemental space for people to talk about their thoughts and feelings. Frances blends talking therapy with creative methods such as visualisation, imagery, symbols and sand tray work when words are hard to find.

Frances trained as an integrative counsellor and draws on several therapeutic models to shape sessions. She uses client-centred listening, attachment ideas, cognitive behavioural techniques and relationship work to suit each person’s needs. Hypnotherapy and Imago relationship ideas are also part of her toolbox.

She has experience supporting people affected by cancer and those navigating separation, divorce, blended family difficulties and domestic violence. Frances describes personal life experience as something that informs her practice and helps her relate to clients’ struggles.

Frances is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP, and holds NCPS credentials. Sessions operate through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Frances uses therapeutic approaches online

Frances draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. This helps when people notice recurring difficulties with closeness, trust or fear of abandonment. Client-centred therapy is another core strand where the person’s own pace and perspective guide the work, and the counsellor offers active listening and reflection to help sort thoughts and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Frances works collaboratively to identify what fits best with a person’s goals and preferences. Sessions can blend methods so the work stays practical and responsive to what emerges.

The biography does not list specific online or in-person formats, so please confirm which session types are currently offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in between sessions. It also gives options for quieter surroundings, or sessions without video when that feels more comfortable. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt creative tools and discussion to the online setting so work continues to focus on real-life changes and practical coping.
