About Susan
Susan Chambers helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She is straightforward and calm, and aims to make talking about difficult things easier. Susan is a BACP counsellor with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.
She supports people dealing with trauma and abuse and those coping with grief and loss. She also helps with self‑esteem, motivation and confidence, and with addiction-related struggles.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the person and on small steps that can change day-to-day life. Susan uses a client-centred way of working that keeps the person’s concerns at the heart of sessions. She listens closely and reflects back what she hears so that people feel understood and clearer about their next steps.
She also draws on trauma‑focused methods when past harm affects current wellbeing. In practical terms, Susan helps people name patterns such as codependency, avoidance, feelings of emptiness or difficulties with attachment. She works with issues like anger, intimacy worries and career stress, and she also supports those facing midlife shifts or caregiver strain.
Her approach is collaborative. Together the counsellor and the person set goals, try out different ways of coping, and check what is working. The focus is on realistic changes people can use between sessions.
Susan practices in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. People can expect a steady, non‑judgemental presence while they work through painful memories, life transitions or everyday pressures.

Approaches Susan lists

Online support
Trauma‑focused therapy targets the impact of difficult past events on present feelings and behaviour. It involves gentle processing of memories and learning ways to respond differently when old patterns are triggered. This is useful for people dealing with abuse, dissociation or ongoing trauma symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, try different ways of working and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful. This is a collaborative process that respects the person’s pace and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text‑based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, live chat offers a shorter check‑in and text messaging can work for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel.
