About Susan
Susan Vincent MSc is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 23 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people facing career decisions, compassion fatigue and wider life changes.
Susan keeps sessions straightforward. She listens to what matters most and helps people talk through difficult feelings. Conversations focus on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that get in the way. The pace is set by the client and the topics are chosen together.
Her approach draws on client-centred methods that prioritise the person’s concerns and on psychodynamic ideas that look at how past experiences shape current feelings. She uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, achievable changes and trauma-focused ideas where distress from upsetting events needs to be addressed.
Susan has worked across a range of settings over more than two decades. That background informs a calm, steady way of working with practical problems such as work stress, relationship conflict, grief and midlife change. She helps people sort priorities and build day-to-day coping skills.
People considering sessions are invited to think about what they want to change and to bring those goals to the first meeting. Starting is framed as a practical step: a short matching questionnaire followed by a scheduled initial session to agree next steps.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s concerns at the heart of the work. It involves listening carefully and reflecting back what comes up, which helps people feel understood and decide which issues to tackle first. Psychodynamic therapy pays attention to how past experiences and relationships influence present feelings and reactions, which can be useful for repeating patterns in relationships or low self-esteem.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist and client will discuss options and agree which methods to try based on needs, goals and preferences. Work is collaborative and reviewed over time to adjust direction if needed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into study, work or busy days. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and avoid travel time, which can help sustain regular appointments alongside everyday commitments.
