About me
Welcome
Hello, I'm Sian.
I'm a warm, compassionate, neurodivergent, relational counsellor with a genuine passion for helping people reconnect with themselves. I understand what it feels like to lose your sense of self, to feel overwhelmed, alone or disconnected. My own journey of healing through therapy has shaped the counsellor I am today and inspires the safe, accepting space I offer every client.
I believe healing happens through authentic human connection, and it would be a privilege to walk alongside you on your own journey.
How counselling can help
Life can sometimes feel heavy, confusing or exhausting. You may be struggling with difficult experiences from the past, feeling stuck in the present, or simply sensing that something isn't quite right.
Counselling offers you a confidential, non-judgemental space where you can:
Feel truly heard and understood.
Explore your thoughts and emotions safely.
Develop greater self-awareness.
Build self-esteem and self-compassion.
Learn healthier ways of coping.
Move towards the life you want to live.
You don't have to face things alone.
How I work
My foundation is Person-Centred Counselling, which means I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to work alongside you with empathy, honesty and acceptance as you find your own path forward.
Alongside talking therapy, I also integrate approaches that support both the mind and body.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
EFT, often known as tapping, combines gentle tapping on acupressure points with psychological techniques to help reduce emotional distress, regulate the nervous system and process difficult experiences. Many clients find it particularly helpful for anxiety, trauma and overwhelming emotions.
Walk and Talk Therapy
For those who feel more comfortable outdoors, I also offer Walk and Talk Therapy. Being in nature while walking side by side can help conversations flow more naturally, reduce stress and create a sense of calm while we work together.
Areas I can help with
I have experience supporting people with:
Complex trauma
Childhood trauma
Sexual abuse
Domestic abuse
Narcissistic abuse
Anxiety

Stress and burnout
Dissociation
Low self-esteem
Suicidal thoughts
Self-harm

Personal growth and self-discovery
A space where you can be yourself
Whether you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted or simply longing to understand yourself better, you are welcome exactly as you are.
My aim is to provide a compassionate, accepting relationship where you feel safe enough to explore whatever is bringing you to counselling.
As Brené Brown reminds us:
"When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we get to write a brave new ending."
Taking the first step
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, but it can also be the beginning of meaningful change.
If you feel that I may be the right counsellor for you, I'd love to hear from you. Together, we can explore how Person-Centred Counselling, EFT and Walk and Talk Therapy can support you towards healing, resilience and living a more fulfilling life. Take that next step by emailing me, calling me or visiting my website to book in for your first session.

Member organisations
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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
