About Siyue
Siyue Zhang is an AASW social worker with five years of clinical experience. She creates a calm space where people can say what they are feeling and thinking without fear of judgement. Siyue encourages small first steps and acknowledges that reaching out for help takes courage.
Her approach is practical and compassionate. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult feelings and choose actions that match their values.
Siyue pays careful attention to relationships and attachment. This helps when people are trying to understand jealousy, intimacy issues or longstanding patterns that repeat across different relationships. She also supports people working through grief, trauma, addiction and parenting stresses.
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Siyue helps people set manageable goals, practise new skills between sessions, and review progress together. She speaks English and Mandarin and works with people living in Australia.
She aims to make therapy straightforward and relevant to everyday life. Siyue invites people to take things at their own pace and to bring what matters most into the room so they can start making changes that feel useful.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings and then make choices that match their values. It can support people dealing with jealousy, anxiety or life transitions by shifting attention toward meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating difficulties and for learning practical coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Siyue works collaboratively to decide which methods suit each person's goals and preferences. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts techniques as the work progresses so the plan stays relevant.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people join sessions in quieter surroundings or avoid a long commute, while still working on skills, values and relationship patterns with a trained AASW social worker.
