Jecinta Sivyer helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She supports those dealing with grief, addiction, self-esteem and intimacy-related concerns. Jecinta also works with issues such as sleeping difficulties, eating concerns, parenting stress and career uncertainty.

She communicates in English, Lao and Swahili and practises from the United Kingdom. Her style is gentle and person-focused. She offers a calm space to talk through painful or confusing feelings.

Conversations are shaped around what matters to the client rather than a fixed formula.

Background and approach

Jecinta aims to make therapy feel practical and relevant to everyday life. Jecinta uses approaches that consider early relationships and present difficulties. Attachment-based work looks at how past bonds affect current trust and closeness.

Client-centred methods put the person’s experience at the heart of each session and encourage self-directed growth. Psychodynamic ideas are woven in to help uncover patterns that repeat across relationships and choices. This can be useful for problems rooted in family of origin, abandonment or long-standing emptiness.

Sessions often combine talking about recent events with exploring deeper emotional themes. She holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and brings four years of direct practice experience. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.

Therapy sits on a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling then follows based on the therapist’s availability and the client’s preferences.

Therapeutic approaches to use online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current trust and closeness. Online sessions can help people explore patterns of intimacy and safety in relationships and find new ways to connect and set boundaries.

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the work. The therapist offers empathy, acceptance and reflective listening so individuals can make sense of their feelings and decide on goals they value.

Psychodynamic Therapy pays attention to recurring patterns and the influence of past relationships. Online conversations can reveal repeated behaviours and emotional responses, helping people understand why certain problems keep returning.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation rather than a fixed prescription, and plans can be adjusted as therapy unfolds.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls provide face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, live chat allows short check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around life commitments and different comfort levels.
