Background and approach

Sessions are straightforward and practical, aimed at small, achievable changes rather than rushed fixes. In her work she pays attention to relationships and how past experiences shape current reactions. She helps people understand patterns like abandonment or attachment worries and how these affect trust and closeness.

Communication difficulties and workplace strain are also common topics of conversation. Susan offers support around identity and women’s issues, including LGBT concerns and caregiver stress. She also helps people facing isolation, low self-love, or encounters with narcissistic behaviour.

These themes are explored at a pace the client feels comfortable with. Her approach is collaborative: she listens, suggests practical strategies, and reviews progress together. The intention is to boost coping skills, increase confidence and create clearer choices for daily life.

For many people this leads to steadier mood and better ways to handle pressure.

Therapeutic methods and online support

Two commonly used evidence-based approaches are practical problem-solving and exploring relationship patterns. Practical problem-solving focuses on identifying specific difficulties, breaking them into manageable steps and testing small changes that reduce daily stress and anxiety. Exploring relationship patterns looks at how past attachments influence current reactions and helps people notice recurring habits in communication and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which techniques to try and check progress as they go, adjusting the plan where needed.

Online sessions offer flexibility and choice. Video calls suit in-depth conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when less bandwidth is available or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter reflections between appointments or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options help fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel without losing continuity of care.
