About me
Welcome
If you're feeling anxious, low, stressed, or simply not yourself — you're in the right place.
Many of the people I see are:
- overwhelmed by stress or pressure
- struggling to switch off their thoughts
- feeling "not good enough"
- coping with loss, grief, or a big life change
- trying to hold everything together for everyone else
- living with long-term pain or a health condition
- wanting to make sense of how they're feeling and why
I'm Sian, an integrative counsellor working with adults and young people from my counselling room on the Mendips, near Wells. It's a genuinely peaceful spot, and clients often tell me they feel themselves start to relax before we've even begun.
I work with anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, adoption-related issues, chronic health conditions and pain, as well as the challenges that can come with being neurodivergent.
I won't tell you what to do. My role is to listen, help you make sense of what's going on, and walk alongside you at whatever pace feels right — whether you're working through something specific or simply wanting to develop a clearer understanding of yourself. You set the pace; I follow.
I offer a free initial phone consultation, so you can get a feel for how I work and whether it feels like the right fit — with no pressure either way.
Face-to-face sessions are available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, at £50 per hour. Get in touch whenever you're ready — I'd be glad to hear from you.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
