About Sian

Sian Fagan is a psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist working in the United Kingdom. She holds the NCPS credential and brings four years of professional experience to her practice. Sian focuses on building a respectful and compassionate space where people can talk about what matters to them most.

She helps people who are coping with stress and anxiety, and those facing depression or low self-esteem. Relationship problems, trauma and abuse are areas she commonly addresses. Sian also supports people dealing with motivation, confidence, and issues around intimacy and addiction.

Sian adapts discussion and treatment to each person’s needs rather than using a fixed plan. She explains options and works with clients to agree goals and a path forward. Her background includes clinical hypnotherapy alongside psychotherapeutic work, which she may draw on when helpful.

People who are managing life changes, grief, caring roles or long-term health concerns can find practical ways to cope in sessions. She also has experience with neurodiversity and related attachment and developmental concerns listed among her focus areas. Sian describes her approach as sensitive and compassionate, aiming to support small steps that add up to meaningful change.

For those coming from LGBT communities or exploring sexuality and kink-related matters, Sian offers a non-judgemental space to discuss identity and boundaries. She encourages parents and carers who need support with stress or parenting strain to consider short-term work to build skills and resilience.

Therapeutic approaches for online working and fit

Sian combines psychotherapeutic talk work with clinical hypnotherapy when appropriate. Psychotherapy sessions focus on talking through thoughts, feelings and patterns to build clearer goals and practical coping strategies for issues like anxiety, depression and relationship strain. Clinical hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and focused attention to help shift unhelpful habits and strengthen motivation for change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and help you choose methods that suit your needs, goals and personal preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or making it simpler to attend when energy is limited. Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm the exact options before booking to know what is offered. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to maintain continuity of care and to help clients practise techniques between meetings, while tailoring the practical set-up to individual circumstances.
