About Susanne

BACP. 28 years' experience. Susanne (Susie) Robinson works with adults on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationships, family problems, trauma and abuse, depression and addictions. She also supports people dealing with grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strains, anger, low self-esteem and career questions.

Susie uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). She focuses on practical conversation. Sessions look at the problems that matter to the client and at the strengths they already have.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She encourages people to identify what they want to change and what helps them cope now. Work can include looking at thoughts and behaviours, emotional patterns in relationships, and processing traumatic memories where appropriate.

Susie has worked across different settings over nearly three decades. This experience shapes a flexible approach to common life difficulties such as commitment issues, communication problems, control issues, dissociation and substance use concerns. She is familiar with family dynamics including blended family issues and parenting pressures.

Practical issues such as guilt and shame, isolation, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and finding a sense of life purpose are also within her remit. Sessions are conducted in English and are based in the United Kingdom.

How Susie uses therapeutic approaches in remote counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take steps in that direction while accepting difficult feelings. It is often used for stress, anxiety and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and sleep issues. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method for working with traumatic memories and strong distress linked to past events.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Susie will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can change as work progresses.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people continue therapy during life changes without needing to attend in person. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often offer a mix of approaches so practical arrangements and therapeutic choices can be aligned to the client's day-to-day life.
