About Sarah
Her approach combines practical thinking with values-led change. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps in that direction. These methods are used to address things like panic, low self-esteem, grief and compassion fatigue.
Sian has experience supporting people with relationship difficulties, parenting strain, sleeping problems and anger. She also works with issues linked to chronic pain, illness or ageing, and with process and substance addictions. Sessions involve clear goal-setting and practical strategies tailored to each person.
Clients can expect a collaborative style where the counsellor listens and then suggests manageable ways forward. Sian emphasises pacing work to what feels possible, and reviews progress together so plans stay relevant.
She works from the United Kingdom and speaks English. If someone wants to begin, they follow the site's Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How ACT and CBT can work in online sessions
Sian commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, panic and low mood. ACT helps people notice what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps even when feelings are difficult, which suits issues like grief, chronic health challenges and low motivation.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and preferences, then suggest techniques to try. Sessions are collaborative and can shift if something isn’t helping, so the plan evolves with feedback.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into everyday life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also means someone can choose options that suit quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth needs, or a meeting that fits a lunch break or caring responsibilities. Registered or accredited professionals offer this flexibility while tailoring pace and tools to the individual’s needs.
