About Suzanne

Suzanne Bethell is a psychotherapist registered in the UK with nine years of experience. She works with adults facing relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, anxiety and stress, and other challenges common in early adulthood.

Suzanne sees people who are dealing with big life changes - moving out, starting jobs, relationship shifts, and the pressure of feeling behind. She listens to what matters to each person and uses talking therapy methods to help make sense of difficult feelings and patterns.

Her approach draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques. That means sessions focus on the person in front of her and on practical ways to change thinking and behaviour that cause distress. She also uses solution-focused ideas to help identify small, achievable steps forward.

Suzanne has supported people with addictions, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, career uncertainty, bipolar and depression, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues such as adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family matters, cancer-related stress, and domestic violence impacts.

Sessions aim to be direct and practical. Suzanne helps people set goals, test new ways of coping, and review progress. She accepts clients internationally and runs sessions in English.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule their first appointment through the site's online booking flow.

How Suzanne uses therapy approaches in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The approach helps people feel heard and work out their own priorities for change, which can suit issues like low self-esteem and relationship stress.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It is a practical way to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviours, useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.

Suzanne treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss what feels most useful, try methods together, and adjust the focus based on goals and progress. The aim is to pick tools that fit the person's needs and preferences.

If you want to arrange online sessions, confirm the exact session formats offered when you book, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work and travel, allow shorter check-ins when days are busy, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can use different ways of meeting; discuss practical arrangements during the first booking step to find what suits everyday life.
