Marion Fensome, BACP

Marion Fensome is a therapeutic counsellor and hypnotherapist practising in the United Kingdom. She has 14 years of professional experience and holds a BACP credential. Marion offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through difficult feelings and find a way forward.

She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief and depression, and has particular experience supporting people from LGBT backgrounds. Marion also works with issues linked to chronic pain, illness and disability, caregiver stress, and post-traumatic stress.

In sessions she blends talking therapy with practical techniques. People can expect listening that aims to make sense of what is happening, and gentle tools to manage overwhelming moments. Her hypnotherapy and stress management skills offer additional ways to reduce anxiety and improve coping.

Marion uses mindfulness practices alongside client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to help people increase self-awareness. She also draws on experience with bereavement and trauma to shape how a plan might look for someone struggling after loss or abuse.

Her approach is collaborative and paced to individual needs. Marion helps people set realistic steps and build skills for day-to-day life, so they can gradually feel steadier and clearer about what comes next.

How Marion uses talking therapy and hypnotherapy online

Marion works from a mix of client-centred, mindfulness and hypnotherapy ideas. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people can talk freely and clarify what matters most. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple exercises to reduce stress and ground attention in the present moment, which helps with anxiety and rumination. Hypnotherapy offers guided relaxation and imagery to support behaviour change and calmer responses to pain or stress.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. Marion will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest an approach to try. She adapts methods over time so the work stays relevant to how someone is coping day to day.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking as session formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a daily routine, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a busy day. Marion aims to use approaches that fit a person’s life and helps people build practical steps they can use between sessions.
