About Sian

Sian Fagan is a psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist practicing in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and has four years of professional experience helping people address stress, anxiety and low mood. Sian works with sensitivity and respect and aims to create a space where people can take the first difficult step towards change.

Sian focuses on practical conversations that help clients understand what is getting in the way of feeling better. She tailors sessions to each person’s situation and priorities, whether that means improving confidence, addressing relationship concerns, or managing symptoms after trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction and issues around intimacy.

The therapist includes work on everyday problems such as sleeping, eating, parenting pressures and career stress. She also offers help with ADHD, codependency, compassionate fatigue and self-esteem. Her approach blends structured techniques with a person-centred way of listening and planning steps forward.

Sian describes therapy as a collaborative process. She and the client decide together on goals and on the pace of change. Sessions aim to build coping skills, restore motivation and sharpen practical strategies for day-to-day life.

People who want to begin are encouraged to take a small first step. Sian supports clients through the early stages of change and helps them plan manageable next moves towards a more fulfilling life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Sian uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside clinical hypnotherapy to help people reduce distress and build coping skills. Evidence-based talking therapies focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, and on practising new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. Clinical hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to help change habits and boost motivation for recovery.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sian will discuss options with each person and decide together which techniques match the client’s goals, preferences and current situation. That collaborative process helps set clear, practical aims for therapy and review progress as sessions continue.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session formats before booking as the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a quick review is needed. It can also let people use relaxation exercises and homework tools between sessions to support progress in day-to-day life.
