About Susan
Susan Walker is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 25 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem problems, depression, addictions and anger. She also supports people facing grief, intimacy-related issues, eating concerns and major life changes.
Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what a person wants to change. She listens and helps people name patterns that fuel repeated conflicts, snapping, or building resentment. Conversations aim to make sense of feelings and to find doable steps for everyday life.
Susan draws on a mix of approaches to suit the problem and the person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values and respond differently to difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) features when practical strategies for thinking and behaviour make sense.
Client-Centred ways of working create room for people to speak openly and be heard without judgement. She also offers elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and hypnotherapy where these fit a client’s goals. Therapy is collaborative - plans are adjusted as progress and needs change.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary by location. International clients in English are supported. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and then practising small changes that align with those values. It can help when anger or avoidance gets in the way of living the way someone wants. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and gives practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. This is useful for stress, anxiety and anger that follow predictable triggers.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will talk about goals and try methods that fit those goals. Plans are adjusted together as new information and progress emerge, so sessions stay relevant to daily life and changes in need.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule therapy around work or family commitments and can suit shorter check-ins or longer talking sessions depending on how someone prefers to work. Registered or accredited professionals often use a mix of approaches to help people manage anger, improve communication and build coping skills in everyday situations.
