Fiona Biggar
When I left school in the 1970’s I trained as a general nurse which I thoroughly enjoyed. In the early days after qualifying this enabled me to work for a charity as a voluntary nurse in India gaining valuable experience before working at home in Scotland and in other countries.
I have been a complementary therapist for nearly thirty years and have worked extensively in the third sector for mental health charities for several decades whilst maintaining a small private practice. Once again this has given me invaluable experience not only working with but being able to support people individually and in groups.
Through my work I have been fortunate to support and work with those clients who experience anxiety, stress, panic attacks, sleeplessness, grief, lack of confidence and low self-esteem, addictions and survivors of childhood sexual abuse.
I would say I use a person-centred approach when working with people and am a compassionate and attentive listener. I have been working with the Moira Anderson Foundation since May 2024.
