About Susan
Susan Chambers offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, trauma or loss. She speaks plainly and listens closely so clients can say what they need in simple words. Susan aims to help people feel steadier and more able to make everyday choices that matter to them.
She uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the effects of past harm and painful experiences. She also practises Client-Centred Therapy, which puts the client's perspective at the centre of sessions and helps people feel heard.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to focus on understanding what is happening now and trying small, manageable changes. Susan has four years of professional experience and holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy credential. Her background includes work with people facing grief, relationship strain, addiction concerns and low self-esteem.
She also supports those dealing with anger, career stress and midlife questions. In practical terms, sessions are an opportunity to talk things through without judgement. Susan helps clients identify coping steps and build on what already works for them.
Conversations can cover attachment worries, feelings of emptiness, dissociation and caregiver stress when these are part of someone's story. Her style is straightforward and steady. People who want down-to-earth guidance and a listening space often find this helpful.
The aim is to make progress at a pace that fits each person's life.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Trauma-Focused Therapy is used to help people notice how past harm shows up now. It focuses on reducing the hold of painful memories and learning safer ways to respond to triggers. This approach can help with symptoms that follow abuse, accidents or other traumatic events.Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of the work. The therapist listens without judgement and helps people name what matters to them. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, low self-worth and making sense of life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and is worked out together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as therapy progresses. This collaborative plan helps make sessions feel relevant to everyday life.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues and build rapport, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible for work, family and travel commitments.
