Welcome, my name is Suzanne. How can I help you? Well, together we can explore what is happening for you. I am a straight-talking, open minded and warm person who will carefully listen to you and look at what is happening in your life, from your perspective. 

For our therapy to work, our relationship, me as a person and my years of experience are the key factors that enable me to help my clients.  My counselling service is flexible and designed to be tailored to your unique situation.

We can work together for you to talk openly and to feel heard in a safe and confidential space.

I work collaboratively with my clients to help them find their own solutions. If it is useful, I look at my clients history and we can see how the past may impact the present; this can help with self awareness.  I look at exploring my clients negative thoughts and emotions and work with them to  understand and accept difficult feelings.  When needed, we can do some solution based work.  In summary, I am an integrative therapist working with each unique person in a way that works for them.        

I offer a free 30 minute consultation which allows you to get a sense of whether I am the right counsellor for you and feel more familiar with me before we meet

The use of the title Dr in this directory listing relates to the member’s doctorate qualification. However, this does not imply a general medical qualification.

Our relationship is 'key' and the way I work is to begin by starting  to get to know you 'just a little' as it takes a lifetime to really get to know someone.  I explore why you have come to therapy.  I listen carefully and agree with you what you want from our therapy. As therapy progresses, I check our goals and our progress to see if the therapy is helping.  If changes are needed to our therapy, we can make changes as we go along.  I encourage my clients to be open and honest with me.  This is your therapy time.  

I have extensive experience of working with clients experiencing stress, overthinking, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, domestic violence and anger (their own anger or others). I work with depression, illness and bereavement. Sometimes working holistically with mind and body helps in these areas.  I look at all of these areas and more in the context of your relationships where applicable.  I am quite experienced in working with relationships including partners and friends. 

I have certificates in  Level 1 and 2 Safeguarding for Adults and Children. CPD training in Anxiety, Depression and Anger Management. Suite of Training with Charity MIND including Conflict resolution and Equality and Diversity.

As a former line-manager with a BSc and PhD in psychology, I have had over 15 years of experience helping people with workplace stress; I can help you with this. Counselling is different to line management but I have made use of this experience to help clients with workplace stress.

I can also help clients that have family members that have dementia or are living in a care home.  

I see myself caring and warm person with plenty counselling and life experience.  Together we can make some changes in your life.  

If you would like to find out more and see if we could work together, I offer a free 30 minute consultation on zoom or by telephone.  This allows you to get a sense of whether I am the right counsellor for you and feel more familiar with me before we meet
