Our Founder

Welcome to the Wellspring and Yew.

I’m Sian a counsellor and therapeutic practitioner with over 10 years practice experience and 5 years academic teaching experience.

Having worked across a diverse range of settings, I understand what therapists need to truly promote wellness and what clients need to heal.

After years of searching for the perfect home for my work, I have come to create The Wellspring and Yew. The therapeutic rooms and outdoor spaces have each been carefully considered and created, with the unique needs and preferences of practitioners in mind. Meticulous attention paid to every detail, from the ethically sourced, recycled fixtures and furnishings, to the people joining to deliver the practices mission to make high quality, deeply transformational, sustainable therapeutic practice accessible.

I am passionate about supporting the growth of private practitioners and cultivating communities for therapists to thrive personally and professionally.

My aim is to alleviate the isolation often experienced by private practitioners and strengthen our collective reputation, practice and voice by working in collaboration.

If the work being offered here is something you want to be a part of I would encourage you to book a tour soon. This is a unique opportunity to become a part of the space as it emerges, helping to shape the offering to fully meet the needs of our clients. I hope to greet you at the Wellspring and Yew soon to hear all about your practice and share more about the vision and values the space is going to deliver
