About Susan

Susan Walker is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 25 years of professional experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or relationship problems. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, grief, addiction and struggles with self-esteem and motivation.

Susan aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Sessions are shaped to the individual's needs and pace. She focuses on simple, practical ways to cope and make small changes that add up over time.

Background and approach

In sessions she listens closely and helps people notice unhelpful patterns. She draws on approaches that teach skills for managing strong emotions and changing difficult thoughts. The work often includes learning new ways to respond rather than reacting automatically.

Susan has particular experience with attachment and abandonment concerns, dissociation, domestic violence and problems that arise in blended families. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, first responder issues, codependency and communication or commitment worries. People who choose to work with her can expect a collaborative approach.

She will help set clear goals and review progress together. The focus is on practical tools and steady steps toward feeling more in control and connected to what matters.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process distressing experiences by gently working through memories and reactions to reduce their impact. It is useful for those who feel stuck because of past events. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice difficult thoughts without fighting them and to commit to actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression and motivation problems.

Susan will work collaboratively to find an approach that fits each person's needs and goals. She will discuss options, try techniques together and review what helps. Finding the right method is a shared process that can change as work progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls can recreate a face-to-face feel, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and messaging allows shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or different time zones while keeping continuity with the same therapist.
