About Siobhan
Siobhan Hopkins is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She supports people with relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, career changes, stress and anxiety. Her work also addresses trauma, addictions, intimacy concerns, anger, depression and blended family issues.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people make sense of patterns that feel stuck. Sessions focus on understanding what has happened and on practical next steps. Siobhan does not offer quick fixes; she works steadily to help clients notice what gets in the way of change.
Her background includes study at Newman University in Birmingham and practice in the UK, Ireland and the USA. She identifies as an integrative counsellor who draws on person-centred principles alongside psychodynamic and humanistic ideas. She lists Attachment-Based, CBT, Jungian and Mindfulness approaches among the methods she uses.
Siobhan has experience with issues that can sit alongside family life, such as parental adultery, growing up around addiction, postnatal depression and spiritual or faith-related concerns. She says this experience lets her recognise some of the unsaid material that clients sometimes find hard to bring up.
Her style is direct and respectful, with some humour when it fits. People who choose her can expect a conversational, client-led approach that aims to clarify what matters to them and identify manageable steps forward.
Approaches you might use in online sessions
Attachment-Based work focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of relating. It helps people understand patterns of trust, closeness and distance in adult relationships and is useful for relationship strain and attachment issues.Client-Centred work puts the person and their experience at the centre of sessions. It involves listening without judgement, reflecting what comes up, and helping people find their own answers for issues like grief, parenting and life changes.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical tools to manage anxiety, stress and low mood, and helps people test out different ways of responding to difficult situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help decide which methods suit a client's needs, goals and preferences. That choice is made collaboratively and can change as therapy progresses.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life - for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or offering options that do not require being on camera. These practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent alongside family and work commitments.
