Jecinta Sivyer
Compassionate, practical support for life changes
About Jecinta
Jecinta Sivyer helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, grief and parenting challenges. She also supports concerns around self-esteem, intimacy, eating and sleeping, anger, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Jecinta works with LGBT clients and people coping with trauma, abuse, chronic illness and major life changes.
She keeps sessions simple and direct. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small steps that can make life easier.
Background and approach
Jecinta listens for patterns linked to past relationships and current pressures and uses that understanding to guide practical change. Her background includes four years of experience in counselling and a BACP registration, which means she meets the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy standards.
She draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at early relationships and attachment, and uses client-centred methods to put the person’s experience at the heart of the work. Expect a warm, respectful approach that aims to build safety and clarity over time. Sessions are collaborative - the person sets goals and Jecinta adapts the pace and focus to fit those goals.
Conversations can include exploring difficult memories, improving communication, or trying new coping strategies. She offers sessions in English, Lao and Swahili and works with people based in the United Kingdom. Practical arrangements like session length and format are discussed at the start so therapy can fit into day-to-day life.

How Jecinta’s approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and expectations. Online sessions can help identify patterns of attachment and build new ways of relating that reduce anxiety and improve closeness.Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The therapist provides non-judgemental listening and reflects back what is said so people feel heard and clearer about their next steps. This approach suits people seeking empathic, paced support for stress, low self-esteem or life transitions.
Psychodynamic Therapy explores recurring feelings and unconscious patterns that influence behaviour. Through talking over time, people can make sense of repeated difficulties and begin to change them.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, past experience and preferences and decide together which methods to use. That collaboration can be revisited as the work progresses.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversation blocks, phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit around a short break, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain regular contact over time.
