Person-centred care and evidence-based techniques delivered online

Person-centred counselling focuses on the individual and their lived experience, where the therapist offers empathy, unconditional positive regard and understanding to help clients explore feelings and personal goals. This approach is especially helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and emotional distress.

In addition to her person-centred foundation, Susan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to a person’s needs. That means drawing on proven methods to address problems such as anxiety, depression, trauma responses and stress, and adapting those methods to suit how each client prefers to work and communicate.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Susan works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences and life circumstances, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - offer practical flexibility for people juggling work, care or health demands. These formats make it easier to receive consistent support from registered professionals and therapists without travelling, and they allow sessions to be scheduled in ways that suit daily life while maintaining a professional therapeutic relationship.
