About Sian

Sian Fagan is a psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She holds the NCPS credential and works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, and anger. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage feelings and respond differently to difficult situations.

She uses conversation and hypnotherapy to help people notice patterns that keep problems going. That might mean looking at how stress builds, how past hurts affect current reactions, or how sleep and motivation link to low mood. Sian aims to make sessions straightforward and action-orientated so people leave with tools they can use between appointments.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns beyond mood and relationships. This includes challenges linked to identity and sexual diversity, parenting strain, grief, addictions, ADHD and career pressures. She also lists specialised interests such as attachment issues, body image, chronic illness, and care-giver stress.

Sian describes her way of working as sensitive and respectful. She adapts conversations and plans to each person rather than applying a fixed script. That means practical steps, short-term strategies and longer conversations when needed.

Clients who choose her can expect a mix of talking therapy and guided hypnotherapy techniques aimed at reducing unhelpful reactions and building clearer coping habits. The emphasis is on small, manageable changes that fit everyday life.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Evidence-based talking therapy involves structured conversation to identify patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts and develop new ways of coping. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress and anger because it breaks problems into manageable steps and builds practical skills people can use day to day.

Clinical hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help people access calm states and reinforce new habits. For anger and stress it can support learning different responses and reducing physiological reactivity, often alongside verbal techniques taught in sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your concerns and try different techniques to see what helps most. That means decisions about emphasis and methods are made together, based on your goals and what feels useful in practice.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments around work and family life and reducing travel time. Remote work can make shorter check-ins easier to arrange and allow people to try techniques in their real-life setting between meetings. The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking.
