About Shiao-Wei Lin

Shiao-Wei Lin is a BACP-accredited counsellor who draws on a humanistic orientation to support people through emotional and life challenges. BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and indicates recognised professional membership and training standards. She approaches therapy with respect for each person’s background and values, working to help clients uncover strengths and regain balance in their lives.

She offers a calm, non-judgmental space for adults to explore feelings, experiences, behavioural patterns, and spiritual concerns. Her role is to listen deeply, help make sense of difficult situations, and to support practical change by removing blocks that limit personal growth. She adapts theory and skills to match the needs of each person rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.

Sessions with Shiao-Wei are designed to help clients feel genuinely heard while they examine thoughts, emotions, and behaviours so they can increase self-awareness, accept difficult material, and move toward more fulfilling ways of living. She works with individuals aged 18 and over and with couples, offering collaborative guidance aimed at lasting personal change.

Approach-driven online therapy for practical change



Shiao-Wei Lin uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the client’s perspective guides the work; this approach helps people who need empathetic understanding and encouragement to explore values, identity, and emotional experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that contribute to distress and to develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on goals and small, immediate steps toward change, making it useful for clients who want targeted, short-term progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Shiao-Wei works collaboratively with each person to decide which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts methods over time so that therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and life circumstances. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, while travelling, or across time zones, and they allow therapists and clients to maintain continuity of care even when in-person meetings are not possible.
