About Sian
Sian Dyer is a BACP-registered psychotherapist working in the United Kingdom. She helps adults and couples who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, low mood, relationship difficulties, or a sense of disconnection. Her work focuses on practical ways to feel more settled and in control of everyday thoughts and habits.
Sian blends cognitive behavioural ideas with humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives to create a tailored approach. She pays close attention to how the nervous system shapes reactions - fight, flight, freeze or shutdown - and uses that understanding to guide emotional regulation work. Sessions include straightforward tools for calming the body and easing intense feelings.
She supports people to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. That includes building self‑esteem, setting boundaries, and improving communication in close relationships. Sian also works with issues such as addiction, grief, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD and compassion fatigue.
Sian draws on attachment-informed ideas when relationships feel stuck, helping partners see recurring patterns and move toward empathy and teamwork. Her background and lived experience inform a calm, realistic style that aims to make progress feel achievable rather than overwhelming.
With five years' clinical experience, she offers therapy that links thoughts, everyday habits, emotions and the body. If someone wants to explore why they react the way they do and try practical changes, she provides a steady, person-focused space to do that.

How Sian’s approaches translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck in unhelpful thinking. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and problems with everyday habits. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting thinking and behaviour patterns and trying small changes that can reduce distress and improve routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sian will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt techniques to fit someone’s needs and goals. This is a collaborative process where the person and therapist decide together which tools to try and how to pace progress.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and simpler continuity when schedules change. Online work can make check-ins quicker and reduce travel time, which helps sustain regular sessions. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available online or in-person options before booking so arrangements match personal needs and circumstances.
