Sian Fagan
Compassionate therapist and clinical hypnotherapist
About Sian
Sian Fagan offers a calm, practical approach that aims to help people feel steadier and more able to cope. She presents herself as a therapist and clinical hypnotherapist with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Sian works in English and accepts clients from other countries.
Sian focuses on common problems that can make day-to-day life harder. These include stress, anxiety, depression and trauma and abuse, along with relationship and intimacy-related concerns.
Background and approach
She also supports people with issues such as sleep and eating difficulties, addictions, anger and low self-esteem. Her practice includes attention to parenting strains, career stresses, compassion fatigue and ADHD. She lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, adoption and foster care experiences, body image, chronic illness and codependency.
This range means she often helps people facing overlapping problems rather than a single issue. Sian describes her style as respectful, sensitive and compassionate. She says she will tailor conversations and any treatment plan to each person’s individual needs.
That means sessions aim to fit the client rather than following a rigid formula. Taking the first step can feel difficult. Sian offers support through that beginning stage and through the changes people want to make.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process where practical steps and discussion work together to build more satisfying day-to-day life.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online support
Many of Sian's methods draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on talking, behavioural change and guided relaxation. One approach uses structured conversation and practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage day-to-day stress, helping people build routines and simple coping tools that can be practised between sessions. Another approach employs guided relaxation and hypnotherapy techniques to help with sleep problems, confidence and motivation by teaching people ways to calm their body and shift unhelpful patterns of thought. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will explore a person's goals, preferences and practical needs and then suggest options. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as understanding grows and priorities change. Online sessions make it easier to access this work in different ways. Video calls suit deeper conversation and visual connection, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, and live chat or text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins or step-by-step support between appointments. These formats give flexibility to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel while still allowing registered or accredited professionals to guide change and progress.| Session length | Typically 50 minutes |
