Susanne (Susie) Robinson, BACP

Susanne (Susie) Robinson helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger and low self-esteem. Susanne also works with people navigating career shifts, life transitions and compassion fatigue. Susanne practises in a way that puts the client at the centre. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths already present. Conversations are practical and grounded, with the aim of making small, useful changes that add up over time. Her background spans nearly three decades in a variety of settings. That experience has shaped a flexible approach to therapy rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Susanne draws on several well-known methods to match the work to the person's needs. Sessions typically focus on clear goals and gentle exploration. The work can include addressing past hurt, improving communication, changing unhelpful thinking, and building healthier patterns. Susanne encourages curiosity about feelings and behaviours without blame. Clients can expect an encouraging, non-judgemental atmosphere. The emphasis is on collaboration and on practical steps that fit everyday life. Susanne aims to support people as they move toward more manageable routines and clearer decisions.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters most and take small steps toward those values despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It is often useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and can help with low mood, anxiety and practical coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, centres on understanding and reshaping emotional responses to improve connection and relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Susanne will discuss different methods and, together with the client, choose what fits their aims, preferences and the issues they bring. That collaborative process shapes how sessions proceed and what techniques are used.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the current session options before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Many clients find remote sessions help fitting therapy around work, caregiving and travel. Online work can allow shorter check-ins, easier scheduling and fewer journeys, which helps people sustain regular appointments while managing daily life.
