Hello! My name is Susy and I have 7 years of experience in working with individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds. Sometimes life brings unexpected situations into our paths that we don't feel able to deal with easily. I offer a gentle, reflective space to help you navigate your situation with kindness and self compassion.
I seek to offer a warm and empathic space for whatever you bring. I have significant experience in working with neurodiversity and also work with LGBTQI clients and their family members. I welcome all, equally.
I work from an integrative perspective, which means that I draw on a number of different theories to help you with your specific challenges. I find that offering guided visualisation work, in partnership with the client, can help find a way through. You will remain at the centre of the work at all times and we will only work in the way that you feel comfortable.
I love being creative, I have a background in education and have worked in various countries around the world. I used to be a teacher in prisons for a number of years. I have substantial experience of neurodiversity, specifically ADHD and high functioning Autism.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage; well done for getting this far! I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
