About Susan
Susan Walker helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. She writes in a calm, direct way and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Susan has 25 years of experience and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to shape her practice in the United Kingdom.
She works with stress, anxiety and depression, and with people coping after trauma or abuse. She also supports those dealing with relationship difficulties, intimacy issues, grief, addictions and eating concerns.
Background and approach
Parents and carers who are feeling stretched can talk through caregiver stress and blended family challenges. Susan combines several approaches to suit each person. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking, and acceptance and commitment practices to help people notice values and take meaningful action.
Client-centred work keeps sessions focused on what the person needs in the moment. Sessions are tailored rather than one-size-fits-all. Susan will discuss goals, try practical exercises in session, and adapt the plan as things change.
She aims for clear, straightforward conversations so people leave with tangible next steps. People who want flexible options can meet by video, phone, live chat or messaging. International clients can be supported in English.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a session is scheduled according to therapist availability.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together decide which methods fit best. This collaborative process means techniques can be mixed and changed as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face when needed. Phone sessions can be quicker and require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, ongoing support or people who prefer writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and daily life while keeping progress focused on real goals.
