About Susan
Susan Hewitt is a counsellor with 13 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing relationship problems, trauma and addiction concerns.
Susan aims to build an open and non-judgemental space for talking about difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions are practical and rooted in everyday language so people can use what they learn between meetings.
Background and approach
She encourages small, manageable steps that fit into busy lives. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred principles to make people feel heard and understood. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when people want to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour.
Narrative and mindfulness tools are introduced to help with mood, grounding and clearer self-understanding. Over more than a decade she has worked with a wide range of concerns including grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, career stress and long-term health challenges. Susan explains options plainly and helps people weigh what might suit them best.
People who choose to work with her can expect a collaborative way of planning sessions. She listens for what matters most, and adapts methods to match goals and life demands. The emphasis is on steady progress and practical coping strategies.
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice connection styles and how these affect trust and closeness in adult life. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s views at the heart of sessions; the counsellor listens actively and follows the client’s pace to build understanding and self-direction. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns and reduce anxiety. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and feedback guide the plan. Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone appointments, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people read non-verbal cues during deeper conversations. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a session needs a quick check-in. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, people who prefer writing, or those who want flexibility around work and daily life. These options make therapy more accessible and help people keep momentum when schedules are tight.Questions people ask
