About Siyue
Siyue Zhang is an AASW counsellor with five years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, open space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, relationships and low mood. Siyue aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful.
Her approach is practical and down-to-earth. Siyue listens first, then works with each person to set small, clear goals. She uses techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses.
Background and approach
Attachment-based ideas are part of how she thinks about relationship and intimacy concerns. That helps when people want to understand connection, trust or patterns that repeat across relationships. Siyue also draws on client-centred methods to keep sessions paced around the person’s needs and priorities.
She has worked with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting stresses, burnout and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include body image, communication problems and support around life transitions. Siyue speaks English and Mandarin, which can help people who prefer to speak in either language.
Siyue encourages practical steps alongside reflection. Sessions may include exercises, values work, or simple skill-building to manage anxiety, sleep or daily routines. She invites people to be curious about change and to move at a pace that feels right for them.

Online support
How Siyue’s approaches translate to online therapy
Systemic ideas help Siyue look at how relationships and wider patterns shape a person’s difficulties. In practice she notices role, communication and interaction patterns and helps people try small changes that can shift how things play out. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and practical action; sessions often include values clarification and simple exercises to build willingness to try new behaviours.Attachment-based work pays attention to how people form and maintain connections. This can help with intimacy-related issues, trust and recurring relationship patterns by exploring expectations and emotional responses. Siyue aims to match approaches to each person, and she will discuss which methods feel most useful as therapy progresses in a collaborative way.
Online therapy with Siyue is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for in-depth conversation and exercises, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or you prefer not to be on camera, and messaging can work for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain momentum between meetings.
