About Suzanne
She trained to professional standard and holds the NCPS credential. Suzanne has nine years of clinical experience working across a range of settings and with private clients. That background means she is used to supporting people with things like trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar, addiction and compassion fatigue.
In sessions she draws on client-centred ways of working alongside cognitive behavioural ideas, solution-focused techniques and trauma-informed approaches. This means conversations focus on the person in front of her, practical changes, and understanding how past experiences affect the present.
Suzanne aims to make sessions straightforward and relevant. She listens first, then helps people identify small steps that feel achievable. Appointments are shaped around each person’s goals and pace.
People often come for help with parenting strain, communication problems, grief, career crossroads and adjusting to big life changes. Suzanne also supports those navigating adoption and foster care issues, blended family difficulties and relationship commitment concerns.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and begin to make their own choices about change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and helps people try practical shifts that can reduce anxiety and low mood.Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether to focus on practical techniques, emotional processing, or a mix of both.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be more convenient for people who live at a distance or who need sessions around work or caregiving commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches for remote work and will discuss what will suit your situation during the first steps.
