Frances Dennehy, NCPS

Frances Dennehy helps people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, stress and addiction-related concerns. She also supports those coping with grief, intimacy issues, eating concerns, anger, low self-esteem and career pressures. Frances lists additional focus areas such as communication problems, guilt and shame, pregnancy and childbirth and building self-love.

Frances works in a straightforward, compassionate way. She aims to build a trusting, caring relationship where difficult thoughts and feelings can be talked through without judgment. Sessions are intended to be a space to slow down, make sense of what is happening and try out new ways of responding.

Her approach is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy, which places the person and their experience at the heart of the work. That means the pace, topics and goals come from the person attending sessions. The therapist listens closely and reflects back what matters most to the client.

With four years of experience and the NCPS credential, Frances draws on practical conversation and steady support to help people notice patterns and make changes. She encourages small, achievable steps rather than dramatic overhauls.

People often begin by naming one or two problems they want to change. Frances then helps explore options and decide what to try next. The focus is on clear, manageable goals and honest, respectful dialogue.

Client-centred support online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than the problem. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is shared and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach suits people who want a supportive, non-directive space to understand feelings and decide on next steps.

The emphasis is on being heard and respected. Sessions aim to build a trusting relationship so people can talk about hard things like trauma, parenting challenges, grief or relationship worries. The therapist works with each person to set goals and choose the pace and focus together as a collaborative process.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be useful when less bandwidth is needed, live chat is suited to shorter check-ins and text messaging lets people write when that is easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life and help keep contact consistent even with a busy schedule.
