About Siobhan

Siobhan Stephen works with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain and grief, helping people talk through difficult feelings and practical problems. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 14 years of professional experience.

She aims to create an open environment where people can talk without fear of judgement and where practical steps can be discussed. Sessions focus on understanding patterns that keep problems active and on small, manageable changes people can try between meetings.

Siobhan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts what she does to each person’s situation. Conversations cover emotions, thoughts and behaviour, and may include practical strategies for coping with panic, low mood or addictive urges.

She works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, body image, codependency, control issues, divorce and separation, drug and alcohol addiction, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, money worries, panic attacks, seasonal affective disorder, self-love, social anxiety and women’s issues.

Sessions are conducted in English and Siobhan does not work with international clients at this time. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Siobhan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with specific problems. Cognitive-style approaches focus on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and give practical tools to manage anxiety, panic and unhelpful thinking. Behavioural techniques look at activity, routines and exposure to feared situations and help people reduce avoidance and rebuild confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with each person and agree on what to try first, based on needs, goals and personal preference. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting counselling around work, family and other commitments, and avoiding travel time. If you need to know which session formats are offered, confirm them before booking, as specific formats were not listed in the biography. Many people find online sessions help keep continuity of care and make it easier to attend regular meetings.
