About Susan
Susan Gibson offers a person-centred way of working that puts the client's experience at the heart of each session. She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and career concerns. Susan brings a straightforward manner and practical focus to conversations about trauma, compassion fatigue and confidence.
Over ten years she has worked with many people to untangle difficult feelings linked to abandonment, attachment problems and codependency.
Background and approach
Her background includes helping clients who face control issues, guilt, shame and the fallout of divorce or separation. She also supports people dealing with domestic violence, infidelity, isolation and intense mood or impulsivity struggles. Susan integrates methods from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people find clear steps forward.
She also draws on narrative and psychodynamic ideas to explore patterns that have developed over time. Sessions focus on small, manageable changes and on understanding how past experiences shape present choices. Sessions are offered in English and are available to people in the United Kingdom as well as international clients.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Susan will discuss options and adapt methods to what fits the person's needs, goals and preferences. She works collaboratively, checking in about what helps and what feels relevant as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers flexibility and makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good choice for shorter check-ins. Live chat or text-based messaging suit people who prefer typing or want ongoing access between fuller sessions. These options help people maintain regular contact and try therapy in ways that fit their routine.
