About Susan

Susan Clarke is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who holds BACP registration and has three years of professional experience. She focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger and depression. Susan encourages a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and start to make small, steady changes.

She helps people who are coping with life changes, workplace pressures, relationship concerns and issues relating to identity, including LGBT matters. Other areas she pays attention to include attachment and abandonment worries, caregiver strain, and feelings of isolation or low self-worth. Sessions aim to build clarity and everyday coping strategies rather than quick fixes.

Susan works collaboratively, listening first and then helping clients set realistic goals. She emphasises practical steps such as clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and routines that support mood and energy. Progress is paced to the person, with space for reflection and adjustment along the way.

People often come wanting help to manage anger, improve self-love, or cope better at work and home. Susan draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person’s needs. Her approach suits those who want a supportive, down-to-earth counsellor to help them make life feel more manageable.

If you are ready to explore change, she supports you in taking those first steps and staying on track as you build new patterns.

How evidence-based techniques can work online

Many people benefit from approaches that focus on present difficulties and practical change. One common method involves structured problem-solving and behavioural adjustments to reduce stress and lift mood; it helps with anxiety, low motivation and depression by breaking tasks into manageable steps. Another helpful strand emphasises exploring attachment and past patterns to understand current relationship and abandonment worries; this can clarify why certain reactions happen and point to new ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to what matters most to the client, discusses what different techniques involve, and together they decide which route to try first. Plans are reviewed so methods can be adjusted if something does not feel helpful.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as fitting a session into a work break or avoiding travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when that suits the person, or sessions without video if bandwidth or comfort is a concern. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm which options are currently offered before booking.
