About Sian

Sian Llewellyn is a counsellor based in Wales who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She works with people dealing with trauma, eating and body image issues, addictions, parenting strain and intimacy-related difficulties. Sian is open about supporting those with attachment and abandonment worries, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She practises in English and accepts international clients.

Sian trained at Worcester University and gained a Level 5 FDSc in Person Centred Counselling. She later completed an accredited Diploma in Relationship Counselling and an accredited Diploma in CBT. Her professional registration is with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Her style is warm and person-centred. She aims to provide empathy, honesty and practical support in sessions. Sian often uses mindfulness and compassion-focused ideas to help people manage difficult thoughts and feelings. She also draws on attachment-based work when relationship patterns are part of the issue.

Sessions focus on what the person wants to change. Sian helps people name their goals and then works alongside them, week by week, to make small shifts. Practical strategies and reflective conversation are mixed depending on need. Many clients find this blend useful when coping with life changes, grief or chronic health concerns.

She has around 10 years' experience working with a wide range of difficulties. People who book are asked to use the site's Start Therapy flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How Sian’s Approaches Translate to Online Counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take steps that match their values. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it can help when relationship difficulty, abandonment or attachment issues are a focus.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Sian works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's needs, goals and preferences. Together they will try ways of working and adjust the mix of person-centred listening, mindfulness tools and structured techniques as needed.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and lets people use different ways of working, such as mindfulness exercises or structured worksheets, during sessions. Many people find this flexibility helpful when balancing work, family or ongoing health concerns.
