Sian Llewellyn BACP

Sian Llewellyn is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and pregnancy and childbirth related concerns. She helps with low self-esteem, depression, trauma, addiction issues and parenting pressures. Sian works in a warm, person-centred way so people can talk honestly about what matters to them.

She trained at Worcester University and holds a Level 5 FDSc in Person Centred Counselling. She also completed an accredited diploma in relationship counselling and an accredited diploma in CBT, and has undertaken additional study in psychology and Compassion Focused Therapy. Her listed credential is BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Sian aims to create a calm space for people to explore painful memories and current stresses. Sessions focus on listening, building trust and helping people notice what matters to them. She draws on emotion-focused work when relationships and intimacy are involved, and attachment ideas when early experiences affect current patterns.

Practical tools such as mindfulness and ACT-style techniques are used to help manage anxiety and difficult thoughts. In couples or relationship conversations she pays attention to emotions and patterns rather than assigning blame. Her approach combines supportive listening with gentle practical strategies so people leave with clearer next steps.

She has around 10 years' experience in counselling work and practises in the United Kingdom. Sian describes her practice as non-judgemental and friendly, aiming to guide people through crises and everyday challenges with empathy and steady support.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them and focus on the values that matter. It is useful for anxiety, stress and managing life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns today and helps people make different choices in close relationships or around intimacy.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels most helpful and try different methods if needed. Decisions are made together based on the person's goals, history and preferences so the approach fits the individual.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a busy day and reduce travel time. It also allows for shorter check-ins or telephone contact when that suits practical needs, and lets people use mindfulness or ACT exercises at home between meetings.
