About Sian
Sian Dyer is a counsellor who combines Jungian ideas with practical talking therapies to help people feel steadier and more connected. She works with adults who are coping with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction and grief. Sian uses everyday language and clear strategies so conversations feel straightforward and useful from the start.
Her sessions focus on understanding how the body and mind react to stress. She explains nervous system responses such as fight, flight, freeze or shutdown in simple terms.
Background and approach
That helps people recognise patterns and try new ways of responding to difficult moments. Sian draws on a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural ideas, attachment-based thinking and client-centred work. She also uses Jungian concepts to look at deeper personal themes and life patterns.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to what feels manageable for each person. Practical skills form a large part of the work. People learn emotional regulation tools, ways to build self-esteem and ways to improve communication in close relationships.
Sian pays attention to how thoughts, behaviours and bodily sensations interact so change feels believable and lasting. She has five years' experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions can take place online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and she accepts clients from the United Kingdom and internationally.

Online support
How her approaches work online
Sian uses a blend of Jungian thinking and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. Jungian ideas help people notice recurring themes in their life and bring more meaning to difficult feelings. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck and taking actions that match your values.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns shape current connections. That helps when people want to improve communication, feel safer in relationships or understand why they repeat certain relational habits. Deciding which approach to use is a joint process; the therapist and client look at the person’s goals and try methods that feel like the best fit.
Online therapy makes this collaborative work easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier if camera use is difficult. Live chat or text-based messaging suits quick check-ins, practical coaching or ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility so people can choose what works best for their schedule and needs.
