About Susanna
Susanna Newsome is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National College of Psychotherapists (NCPS). She has 17 years of professional experience and offers sessions in English and Italian. Her work often focuses on relationships, trauma and abuse, career questions, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue and concerns common in young adults.
Susanna uses a client-centred approach that foregrounds the person's perspective. She listens for what matters most and helps people talk through difficult feelings and decisions. Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational rather than directive.
She has practical experience supporting people with body image, workplace stress, isolation, communication problems, control issues and questions about life purpose. She also notes experience with immigration matters, caregiver stress, hoarding and impulsivity. Her background includes trauma-informed work and awareness of dyslexia in adulthood.
Susanna works with people who are navigating early adult transitions such as leaving home, starting careers, relationship shifts and the pressure to feel 'on track.' She encourages clear, honest conversation about goals and immediate steps that can ease day-to-day strain.
Sessions are offered in English and Italian and Susanna accepts international clients. Prospective clients are asked to follow the site's booking steps to match and schedule a first session. She explains fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Susanna uses Client-Centred work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the client make sense of feelings and choices. This approach suits people wrestling with relationship questions, life transitions, identity and the stresses of early adulthood.Susanna also brings trauma-informed awareness to her conversations. That means she pays attention to how past harms can shape present reactions and aims to move at a pace the client finds manageable. This helps when dealing with abuse, compassion fatigue or sudden life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Susanna works collaboratively to identify which methods and pacing suit each person's needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly to adapt the way sessions are run so practical next steps feel useful.
If you want to use online sessions, confirm the exact formats available before booking. The main practical benefit is flexibility - online work can fit into study or work schedules, make shorter check-ins easier, and reduce travel time.
