About Susanne
Susanne (Susie) Robinson helps people facing grief, stress, anxiety and life changes. She works with concerns such as relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, addiction, self-esteem and career worries. Susie also supports people dealing with hospice and end-of-life counselling concerns and compassion fatigue.
Susie uses a straightforward, conversational approach. She treats the person in front of her as the expert in their own life and looks for the strengths that are already present. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on clear, manageable steps forward rather than jargon or long theory talks.
Her work draws on different methods depending on the need. She might use cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thinking patterns, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and action, or emotionally focused methods to strengthen emotional awareness in relationships. Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing may be used where trauma memories need careful attention.
Across nearly three decades of practice Susie has practised in a range of settings and helped people handle practical problems and painful emotions. She aims to create a space where people can talk honestly about fear, guilt, loss and hope, and practise new ways of coping.
People who come to Susie can expect a calm, patient style and practical conversation. Work is collaborative and paced to the individual's needs, with a focus on small changes that add up to better day-to-day living.

How Susie's approaches translate to online and remote work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying what matters most to someone and taking small, value-driven steps. It helps when life changes feel overwhelming and people want clearer direction. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and is useful for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and work with strong emotions to improve how they relate to themselves and others.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is discussed together. The therapist will work with the person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, and that choice can change over time as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow sessions to happen from quieter locations. Some formats are better for shorter check-ins while others suit longer therapeutic work, and Susie will help plan a pattern that fits everyday life.
