About Susanne
Susanne (Susie) Robinson is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 28 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions and parenting challenges.
Susie keeps sessions focused on what the client wants to talk about. She treats the person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to draw on. Conversations are practical and paced so people can take manageable steps between sessions.
Her approach combines talking therapies and evidence-informed methods. That can mean noticing unhelpful thinking patterns, identifying values and small actions, or exploring emotional responses in relationships. She may also use techniques aimed at processing traumatic memories when that is appropriate.
Susie has worked in a range of settings over nearly three decades. That background means she is used to helping people with life transitions, workplace stress, grieving and complex family situations. She also supports people dealing with addiction, intimacy concerns and issues around self-esteem.
People who come for help can expect a straightforward, steady style. Sessions aim to make difficult problems easier to manage and to clarify the next practical steps. To begin, the site matching process and a first appointment set the agenda together.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used and how online sessions fit
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small actions that line up with those values. It can help when life feels stuck or when anxiety stops someone doing things that matter. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and offers concrete exercises to change them, which many people find useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional responses within close relationships and can help make sense of painful patterns that repeat between people.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and help decide what fits best for the person's goals and preferences. That choice is made together and can change as the work progresses.
Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around family life and work commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that helps, and it removes travel time so people can use that hour more practically. Registered or accredited professionals tailor methods and pacing so sessions can focus on manageable steps and everyday problems.
