Shushanik Gasparyan, BACP

Shushanik Gasparyan offers a warm, person-centred approach to therapy. She aims to make it easier to face difficult feelings and life changes. Sessions focus on helping people feel more connected and balanced. Shushanik brings eight years of experience and works in English and Armenian.

Her style centres on listening closely to what matters to each person. She draws on client-centred, narrative and psychodynamic ideas to shape conversations that feel relevant. That might mean helping someone untangle painful memories, make sense of patterns, or try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

She has worked in agency settings as a psychologist for seven years and has collaborated with international organisations such as Save The Children and UNICEF on child abuse projects. That background informs her work with trauma, grief and relationship difficulties. She also supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, stress and addictions.

In sessions she aims to build safety and trust so people can talk through issues like eating or sleeping problems, anger, low self‑esteem, ADHD and life purpose. She also attends to concerns such as codependency, isolation, obsessions and personality difficulties when these come up in conversation.

People can choose shorter or longer work depending on their needs. The first steps are practical and straightforward: a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling according to the therapist's availability. Shushanik seeks to support steady, realistic progress over time.

How Shushanik’s approaches shape online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It involves attentive listening, reflecting what the client says, and helping people find their own solutions; this suits issues like low self-esteem, stress and relationship worries.

Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives. It helps separate a person from their problems and can be useful for issues such as trauma, identity, codependency and life purpose.

Psychodynamic ideas explore how past experiences and patterns influence current feelings and behaviours. This approach can help with recurring relationship difficulties, long-standing anxiety or patterns linked to personality concerns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and tailor the way sessions run. This collaborative process helps decide which methods and pace feel most useful.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around busy schedules and reducing travel time. It can make attending more convenient if someone needs a shorter check-in between other commitments.
