Siobhan Hopkins, BACP

Siobhan Hopkins is a BACP-registered integrative therapist who offers accessible online support for people navigating difficult transitions and long-standing emotional patterns. She works from a person-centred core, drawing on Gestalt, Humanistic and Psychodynamic ideas to tailor a collaborative process that respects each person's pace and priorities. Her practice is welcoming and affirming, and she brings lived and professional insight to complex issues such as postnatal depression, the effects of growing up around addiction, and the emotional aftermath of parental adultery.

Siobhan also supports people facing spiritual or religious questions, including recovery from spiritual abuse and experiences in high-control faith communities, as well as those re-evaluating beliefs that no longer feel like home. Her experience includes working with relationship struggles, survivors of abuse, grief and loss, parenting challenges, career difficulties, and other major life changes. She has trained at Newman University in Birmingham and has lived and worked in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the United States.

Clients can expect a supportive, non-judgmental space where exploration matters more than quick fixes. Siobhan aims to help people discover practical resilience and renewed hope, recognising the personal strengths they already bring to the work.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support with Siobhan Hopkins

Siobhan works integratively and draws on several therapeutic approaches to meet different needs. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps with intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns, and repairing connection in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work; the therapist offers empathy and presence while clients explore their values, choices, and sense of self. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact and provides practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and unhelpful coping habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Siobhan collaborates with each person to identify what feels most helpful based on their goals, history, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time as needs change.

Online therapy with Siobhan is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make sessions easier to schedule around work, family, or caregiving responsibilities. These options support consistent access to therapy from different locations and allow the therapist and client to focus on progress in ways that fit everyday life.
