About Susan
Susan Hewitt is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems and trauma. She uses straightforward conversation to help clients make small, practical changes. She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgement.
With 13 years of experience in the United Kingdom, Susan draws on a range of approaches to meet different needs. She combines client-centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and attachment-based work.
Background and approach
This allows her to address symptoms such as low mood, sleep or eating difficulties, and challenges linked to addiction or bipolar mood swings. Her practice also covers issues around self-esteem, intimacy, grief and parenting strain. She can help people who are coping with illness, chronic pain or the effects of abuse and domestic violence.
Additional concerns she works with include career stress, communication problems and codependency. Susan uses narrative and mindfulness methods to help clients reflect on life stories and develop new ways of responding to difficult thoughts. Sessions focus on practical steps and personal values, so people can try out changes between meetings.
She offers supportive coaching alongside therapy when that is helpful. Sessions are delivered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Fees vary with location and therapist availability and are provided via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support
She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical strategies to change them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep and some eating or addiction-related problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and day-to-day needs and then recommend methods to try. That process is collaborative and may combine listening-based and skills-focused techniques to suit how a person wants to work.
Online therapy with Susan is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for a full, face-to-face style session. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make therapy more flexible around work, caring responsibilities and travel.
