About Susan
Working from an integrative perspective, she draws on a mix of theories to tailor sessions to each person’s needs, and often uses guided visualisation in partnership with clients to explore new ways forward. Susy has substantial experience with neurodiversity, including ADHD and high functioning autism, and she also works with LGBTQI clients and their family members, offering an affirming and inclusive approach.
Her practice is warm and empathic, shaped by a creative background in education and several years teaching in prisons, as well as international work across different countries. She welcomes people facing issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, career concerns, and questions of life purpose or midlife transition. Taking the first step can take courage, and Susy recognises that; she supports clients as they begin and continue their journey.
She holds membership of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Integrative approaches delivered through online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of relating and can help with issues such as intimacy, abandonment, attachment wounds, and family difficulties by exploring connection and emotional needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual’s own experience, offering empathic, non-directive support that helps with self-esteem, decision-making, life changes, and coping with stress; the client’s pace and priorities guide the work. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-focused awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, depression, and compassion fatigue.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be explored collaboratively. Registered professionals and therapists work with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and practical needs, and will adapt the plan as the relationship develops.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, access support from different locations, and maintain continuity of care. These formats allow for ongoing, regular contact and make it possible to choose the style of communication that feels most comfortable for the individual.
