About Siobhan
Siobhan Hopkins is a counsellor who aims to make starting therapy feel manageable. She greets people with warmth and straightforward listening. Sessions are offered online in English, and she invites clients to move at a pace that feels right for them.
She focuses on helping people understand patterns that keep repeating in their lives. Conversations look at relationships, grief, parenting pressures, career changes, stress, anxiety and depression. Practical concerns such as addiction, intimacy, anger and coping with major life changes are also part of her work.
Background and approach
Siobhan uses a mix of person-centred and relational approaches to help people name what matters to them. She listens for the history behind current difficulties and helps people spot links between past experiences and present choices. This can open up new ways of relating and feeling less stuck.
Her background includes four years of practice and study at Newman University in Birmingham. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP in her credentials. She has lived and worked in the UK, Ireland and the USA and welcomes people seeking support from different places.
Sessions are conversational rather than prescriptive. Siobhan can support those exploring questions of faith, recovery from spiritual abuse, or changes in belief. She aims to offer steady listening, gentle challenge and practical direction where needed.

Online support
She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical experiments that change feelings and behaviour. CBT-style work is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress because it breaks problems into small, manageable steps and tests out new ways of coping.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods match their needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative approach means the plan can change over time as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls suit fuller face-to-face conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is low, and messaging or chat can fit quick check-ins or packed schedules. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel.
