About

About Susanne

Susanne Guy, BACP, offers a calm and approachable place to start talking about difficult feelings. She welcomes people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, LGBT issues, parenting strains and many life changes. Her opening aim is simple: to listen, help you make sense of patterns, and support clearer coping choices.

Susanne works in a warm, non-judgemental way that puts the person’s experience first. She believes each person knows their life best and uses that as the foundation for change.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on what matters to the client and on small steps that can make daily life easier. Her practice draws on several approaches to fit different needs rather than one fixed method. That might mean longer reflection on life meaning, looking at past relationships that shape current patterns, or practical conversations about motivation and choices.

The mix aims to suit whoever turns up and the issues they bring. Susanne holds BACP as her listed credential and has five years of practice experience. She works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

People are guided to find ways to cope, to understand attachment and abandonment patterns, and to examine how past experiences affect current relationships and mood. For people wanting to start, she asks clients to complete a short questionnaire and to schedule sessions according to availability.

The service uses a cancellable subscription model for sessions and timing is arranged after the initial matching step.

Online support

How these therapies translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and making space for the person's own perspective. Online conversations using this approach tend to be led by the client and aim to help them feel understood and clearer about their next steps.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how past relationships and patterns influence current feelings and behaviour. In remote sessions this can help map repeating themes such as attachment or abandonment and make sense of why certain responses keep happening.

Motivational Interviewing is practical and goal-focused, helping people find their own reasons to change. When used online it often supports step-by-step planning and clearer momentum towards small goals like reducing substance use or improving sleep.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options with each person and adapt methods based on needs, goals and preferences rather than using one fixed model. Clients and the therapist review what helps and adjust the direction together.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family commitments and removing travel time. Online work can also make it easier to have shorter check-ins when life feels busy, or to choose a quieter setup with only audio if bandwidth is limited. Confirm the available session formats before booking to make sure they suit the situation.
