About Sian
Sian Llewellyn is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She works with concerns such as depression, self-esteem, addiction, trauma and grief. Sian uses a calm, accepting approach to help people find practical ways to cope and move forward.
Sian trained at Worcester University and holds a Foundation Degree of Science in Person Centred Counselling. She also completed an accredited diploma in Relationship Counselling and an accredited diploma in CBT.
Background and approach
Her listed qualification from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy is BACP. In sessions she draws on person-centred principles alongside mindfulness and emotion-focused ideas. That means she spends time listening, reflecting feelings back and helping people notice what matters most to them.
She also uses acceptance and commitment concepts to support people who want clearer values-based choices. Sian has around ten years of experience working with a wide range of issues. She commonly helps with attachment and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, body image and eating difficulties, and complex challenges such as chronic illness or co-morbidity.
She also offers support around ADHD, compassion fatigue and carers' stress. Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Sessions aim to be practical and manageable, with techniques and reflections that people can try between meetings.
Sian welcomes people from across the United Kingdom and internationally, offering a conversational pace and tailored support.
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful patterns and focus on what they value. It uses simple exercises to build more flexible responses to difficult thoughts and feelings, which can help with anxiety and life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current connections and emotional responses. It can be useful for intimacy problems, attachment issues and relationship repair by helping people understand and adjust their interaction patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match your goals and preferences. This process can include trying different techniques and checking in to see what feels most helpful for you.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you have full face-to-face conversations while phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or easier if bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief updates, reflective notes or people who prefer writing over talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or travel, while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical coping skills.
