About Susannah
Susannah "Susy" Rudkin is a BACP-registered counsellor and coach with 17 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, anger and low self-esteem. Susy also helps people facing life changes, addiction concerns, grief and trauma, and she lists ADHD and depression among areas she supports.
Susy describes overthinking and chronic reactivity as learned responses that can be changed. She focuses on practical, present-focused work that helps people calm emotional reactivity and break self-sabotaging cycles. In sessions she aims to identify unhelpful beliefs and emotional triggers that keep someone stuck.
Her background combines counselling and coaching methods. The biography notes training as an Integrative Counsellor (MBACP), an iPEC Energy Leadership Coach (CPC) and Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner, plus Neurolinguistic Practitioner (AB-NLP). She presents tools aimed at creating internal shifts rather than lengthy analysis.
Sessions emphasise straightforward skills and mindset work. That can include noticing patterns, learning emotional regulation skills, and practicing different ways of responding to frustration or resentment. Susy offers clarity-focused conversations for people who want concrete tools alongside insight.
She asks for a willingness to engage in the inner work involved and states this approach may not suit someone seeking a quick fix. To begin, clients follow the site process to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action rather than getting stuck in rumination. It can be useful for chronic worry, anger that keeps repeating, and deciding what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together, and offers practical exercises to change patterns that feed anxiety or reactivity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, helpful when someone’s anger flares and they want steadier responses.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options with each person and try methods that match their goals and preferences. Sessions can shift between learning skills and exploring attachment or belief patterns until a good fit is found.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding camera use when that feels easier. Registered or accredited professionals on the platform can adapt exercises for remote sessions and suggest practical tools to practise between meetings.
