Sian Dyer, BACP

Sian Dyer is a counsellor who combines psychological approaches to help adults facing anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, and life changes. She uses straightforward explanations about feelings and behaviours so people can begin to feel more steady and in control. Sian holds BACP accreditation and works from a UK perspective with five years of clinical experience.

Her practice emphasises emotional regulation and an understanding of the nervous system. She explains why people move into fight, flight, freeze, or shutdown and how those states shape thoughts, feelings and relationships. Sessions look at patterns that keep someone stuck and practical steps to respond differently.

Sian draws on cognitive behavioural ideas alongside client-centred and attachment-based ways of working. That mix is used to tailor sessions to each person rather than follow a single formula. The aim is to build self-trust, clearer thinking and better coping in everyday life.

She also works with couples who want to improve communication, rebuild connection, or better understand repeating relationship patterns. Couples work focuses on recognising emotional responses and attachment needs so partners can move from blame to teamwork.

Sian speaks English and is available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally. She sees issues such as grief, addictions, ADHD, caregiver stress, ageing and geriatric issues, chronic illness, body image, and sexual and intimacy concerns as part of her broad practice. To begin, people are invited to make an initial match and schedule sessions that suit them.

How a clear approach meets online therapy

Sian uses approaches that help people name and change unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. It helps people understand common patterns in close relationships and build more secure ways of connecting. That approach is often useful for relationship and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sian will discuss your needs and goals and suggest which methods to try together. This is a collaborative process and can change as your work progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or health needs, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what practical arrangements would suit your day-to-day life.
