About Me
Hello and Welcome to Colourful Minds Therapy.
I am Sian (she/her), the founder of CMT.
Colourful Mind Therapy specialises in working with neuro-diverse clients, and was created out a desire to provide truly bespoke therapy, as unique as the client themselves!
My pluralistic approach uses a variety of modalities and techniques depending on how my client wants to work, and what they want to achieve.
The focus for me will always be on the unique relationship we build, and how to best work together in a way that suits you and your individuality.
As a therapist, I consider myself warm, compassionate and very down to earth!
I hold Degree level person centred counselling qualification and am a registered member of the BACP, as well as an NCPS Accd counsellor.
How Can I help?
Neuro-diversity
I work in a neuro-affirming way, which starts by understand the uniqueness of each persons way of seeing the world.
We can discuss your needs, and collaborate together to find a way of working that suits you!
This includes session adaptations that I can suggest and support you with.
I have particular experience supporting clients considering, or already navigating the process of formal diagnosis. However, I do not required formal diagnosis as part of your self-assesment.
Relationships
My core training in transactional analysis includes a high degree of relationship analysis.
Who are you in your relationships?
Who do you want to be?
What patterns can be found in your experiences?
Together we can work to deepen your understanding of your relationship with others, and move towards change if you so choose.
Self-Discovery
A lot of my clients are seeking a better level of self-understanding and knowledge.
Why am I like this?
Why do I do things that make me feel worse?
Who am I?
Together, we can work to explore questions like these, and aim to move towards an empowered, autonomous, and more peaceful version of yourself.
I am particularly motivated towards helping my clients reach the most authentic version of themselves, as I truly believe this is the path to mental wellbeing. In many ways the work of therapy can be less about ‘changing who you are’ and more about ‘becoming you are’.
Stress and Anxiety
The modern world gives us many reasons to feel stressed, overstimulated and frankly 'burnt out'.
Many of my clients are seeking ways to manage and improve their feelings of anxiety. Most people want to feel calmer, safer, and more able to enjoy their lives freely.
We can work towards what this objective together in a way that works for you and your world view.
Eating disorders
I have undertaken a high degree of training in addictions and eating disorders, and am adept at supporting people through the process of recovery.
This includes years of experience supporting family members and those impacted by a loved ones addictions. I am passionate about providing a safe and no judgemental space to explore these experiences.
How I work
I offer individual therapy via zoom working online.
After you get in touch I will contact you to arrange a free 20 minute consultation where we can chat about why your considering therapy, as well as what you would like to gain from it.
Then you can decide if you think we would be a good fit.
