About Susan
Susan Walker is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and trauma. She works with issues such as low self-esteem, depression, addictions and grief. Susan aims to make the first step easier for anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed.
She brings 25 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Her approach is practical and respectful.
Background and approach
Conversations are shaped around each person's needs and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Susan uses a range of approaches to suit different situations. These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and hypnotherapy.
She explains options plainly and works with clients to choose what may help most. Sessions focus on real-life change. That can mean building coping skills, working through painful experiences, improving communication, or addressing patterns such as codependency or control issues.
She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, blended family matters and first responder stress. Susan aims to be calm, direct and compassionate in sessions. She tailors the pace and style of work to each person.
If you are considering therapy, she encourages completing the short questionnaire and arranging an initial meeting.

How Susan works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Susan will talk through different options and decide together which methods suit your needs, goals and preferences. That way the plan evolves from what feels most helpful rather than a fixed protocol.
Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer talking without being in the same room. Registered or accredited professionals provide online sessions, and the therapist will help arrange a practical schedule that fits everyday routines.
