About Marion
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of clinical experience, Marion Fensome focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, depression and LGBT concerns. She works as a therapeutic counsellor, hypnotherapist and stress management consultant and uses a range of approaches to support people who are struggling.
Marion helps people talk through distressing feelings and practical problems. She uses client-centred approaches to follow what matters most to the person in the room. She also draws on mindfulness practices and hypnotherapy techniques when these fit a person’s goals.
Her background includes diplomas in hypnotherapy, stress management and therapeutic counselling. Marion has undertaken additional training in bereavement, trauma awareness and anxiety disorders, and has certificates in meditation and telephone support. These skills inform short-term work and longer conversations about recovery and coping.
In sessions she offers straightforward ways to manage overwhelming thoughts and strong emotions. That can mean learning mindfulness exercises, using hypnotherapy tools for relaxation, or talking through painful experiences at a pace someone can manage. She also works on practical stress management and coping plans.
People consult Marion for identity questions, relationship stress, grief after loss, and ongoing anxiety. She also supports those dealing with chronic illness or caregiving strain, and people facing feelings of guilt, shame or isolation. Marion encourages clear next steps and collaborative planning during the early sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centred work means the therapist listens and follows what the client says is most important. In practice this looks like asking about current problems, checking goals, and adjusting pace and focus to match the person’s needs. It suits people who want a reflective, conversational approach to anxiety, grief and identity concerns.Mindfulness therapy offers simple, practical exercises to reduce stress and grounding techniques to manage difficult moments. These practices are taught in short exercises and repeated between sessions to build coping skills. Hypnotherapy focuses on guided relaxation and imagery to help with stress, sleep, and managing persistent negative thoughts; it is presented as structured exercises aimed at calming the nervous system and shifting habitual reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marion will discuss which methods may help and try different ways of working in collaboration with the client. That means checking what feels useful, adjusting techniques, and agreeing a plan together rather than imposing a single method.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, care responsibilities or medical appointments. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and flexibility about whether to use video or phone depending on the person’s comfort and practical needs.
