Fiona Grunschlag first began her training with a BSc in Psychology at the University of Manchester, before going on to complete an MSc in Health Psychology and a Post-MSc in Counselling Psychology at City University, London. She is also a certified ADHD Coach (ADD Coach Academy, USA). Her path has taken her through the NHS, private practice, registered charities, outpatient eating disorder services, primary care, and primary schools, supporting young people, and adults with a range of mental health and neurodevelopmental difficulties.
In the therapy room, Fiona brings an integrative and multi-layered approach. As both a Chartered Psychologist and ADHD Coach, she combines evidence-based psychological therapies with ADHD coaching strategies, recognising the complexity of ADHD and the impact of co-existing conditions. She works on practical skills and strategies, while also addressing emotional and psychological aspects such as self-esteem, shame, and identity. Fiona draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred Therapy (PCT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), motivational interviewing, strength-based approaches, and ADHD coaching, adapting her methods to the unique ADHD “map” and needs of each client.
Fiona works with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, including ADHD, ASD, depression, anxiety, stress, , OCD, low self-esteem, eating disorders, and relationship difficulties. She has a particular interest in working with women at different stages of life and how this impacts ADHD presentation, supporting clients to build confidence, manage co-occurring difficulties, and thrive across personal, social, and professional domains.
