About Susan
Susan Paul is a counsellor with ten years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she aims to help people find clearer ways forward when life feels overwhelming. Her approach treats each person as the expert on their own story and looks to build on individual strengths.
Susan often works with people dealing with stress and anxiety. She also supports those facing anger, low self-esteem and depression.
Background and approach
Clients who are coping with grief, identity questions including LGBT concerns, and attention difficulties such as ADHD may also bring these issues to sessions. Her style is straightforward and supportive. She focuses on listening first, then helping people identify small, practical steps they can try between meetings.
The work often includes talking through what’s happening day to day and testing out new ways of managing emotions and routine. Susan believes change begins with small, steady moves. She encourages honesty about struggles and strengths, and she helps people set realistic goals.
The aim is to make things feel more manageable and to restore energy for everyday life. If someone wants to begin, the usual process is to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to availability. Fees vary with location and the subscription used, which can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Many clients benefit from clear, evidence-based techniques that are practical and goal oriented. One common approach focuses on recognising unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavioural changes in daily life; this helps with anxiety, low mood and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps. Another often-used method concentrates on emotional regulation and learning healthier ways to notice and respond to strong feelings; this is useful for anger, grief and compassion fatigue.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, values and what feels most helpful, and then decide together which techniques to try. This keeps the process collaborative and responsive to how someone actually feels in sessions.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, for example by removing travel time and allowing sessions during a lunch break or after work. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when that better suits someone’s routine. These practical benefits help many people keep therapy going alongside everyday commitments.
