Approaches and Online Support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and learn ways to act in line with those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear - it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence present-day connections; it can help with relationship difficulties, attachment issues, and long-standing trust concerns. Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, offering a warm, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s pace to build self-understanding and confidence - this approach supports work on self-esteem, grief, and coping with change.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Sian works collaboratively with clients and with registered professionals and therapists to identify which methods best match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts sessions as those needs evolve.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to connect from different locations and at times that fit their schedules. This range of options can make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access ongoing support when life is busy or circumstances change.
