About Susan
Susan Hewitt is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience. She helps people who are coping with stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, motivation problems and confidence issues. The first part of work tends to focus on what feels most pressing and practical for the person in front of her.
Susan uses straightforward talk, listening and reflection to help clients make sense of patterns that keep causing pain. She draws on client-centred methods to follow what matters to each person. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding.
An attachment-based perspective shapes how she looks at relationship patterns and long-standing hurt. Narrative techniques help people reclaim a clearer sense of who they are, and mindfulness exercises can reduce overwhelm in the moment. The mix depends on the issue and the person’s preferences.
Susan aims to make the sessions focused and practical. She will help set short-term goals and steps that fit day-to-day life. Work can include talking things through, practising different responses and noticing small changes between sessions.
She is based in the UK and works in English. For someone feeling stuck after leaving education, starting a first job, or negotiating new relationships, her practice offers steady, practical help for early-adult challenges.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns show up in adult life and helps people notice repeated ways of reacting that cause difficulty. It can be useful for relationship struggles, abandonment fears and intimacy-related problems.Client-centred therapy focuses on close listening and following the person’s own priorities. It creates room to say what matters most and to decide small, practical next steps together.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and then tests straightforward alternatives. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood and coping with stressful life changes.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will discuss approaches with the client and choose methods based on their goals, needs and preferences. That collaboration means techniques can be adjusted as progress is made.
The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work shifts or travel, and can allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also means quieter surroundings and not needing to commute, helping therapy fit into a busy early-adult life.
