About Susanna
Susanna "Susan" Abraham is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 15 years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief and anger. Sessions address practical problems such as sleeping and eating difficulties, addiction and coping with life changes.
Her work is direct and goal-focused. She helps clients identify what matters to them and set achievable steps toward those goals. Conversations cover feelings, patterns in relationships, and everyday behaviours that keep problems alive. The aim is to increase awareness and build routines that reduce distress.
Susan draws on approaches that look at how relationships and past attachments shape current responses. She also uses cognitive techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. When emotions run high, she explores how to name and regulate those feelings so they have less power day to day.
Sessions often involve practical exercises between meetings. These may include noticing patterns, small behaviour changes, and experiments in communication. Work can also focus on managing work stress, parenting strain, or the fallout from separation and bereavement.
She accepts international clients and offers support for issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, career problems and caregiver stress. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session to clarify priorities and next steps.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used online
Many of her sessions use attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current reactions. This approach helps when anger or mistrust repeats in close relationships and when people want clearer ways to relate. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behaviour changes. CBT can be useful for addressing workplace frustration, rumination, and patterns that feed anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences in early meetings and suggest which methods to focus on. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.
The original profile lists messaging, phone and video as session formats. Please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people take part without travel. Registered or accredited professionals can help adapt exercises and tasks so they work well across those formats.
