About Susan
Susan Chown is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has more than 10 years of professional experience. She works with people who are coping with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with anxiety, stress, addiction and issues around self-esteem.
Susan focuses on practical conversations that help people notice their own strengths. Sessions are client-centred, which means the person sets the pace and topics while the counsellor follows their lead. This approach often helps people who are unsure where to start or who find talking about difficult feelings hard.
She has experience addressing a wide range of life problems, including eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, career stress and major life changes. Susan also works with people facing long-term health problems, caregiver stress and identity matters such as LGBT issues and body image.
Her work includes helping people manage emotions like anger, grief and low mood, and supporting those dealing with substance use or patterns of codependency. She aims to help people clarify what matters to them and to build small, practical steps forward.
To begin, people are invited to choose an online therapy option and complete a brief matching questionnaire before booking a first session. The initial contact is used to agree goals and practical arrangements for sessions.
Client-centred approaches and online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the person brings. The counsellor follows the client's lead, helping them name concerns and decide which issues to work on. This approach can help with relationship problems, trauma, grief and low mood by creating space for the client to explore feelings at their own pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Susan will collaborate with the client to identify goals and adjust the way she works to match their needs and preferences. This collaborative process means methods can change as the person makes progress or as different issues come up.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to choose audio-only contact if video is difficult, or to schedule sessions that suit work and family routines. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists offer online sessions that aim to fit into everyday life while focusing on the client's goals and practical steps forward.
