About Susanne
Susanne (Susie) Robinson is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 28 years of professional experience. She works with people who bring stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions and anger among other struggles. Susie asks clients what they want to focus on and works alongside them to address those issues.
Susie uses straightforward conversation to identify strengths and resources a person already has. She treats the person as the expert on their own life and builds on what is already working. Sessions aim to make practical sense of what is happening and to find manageable steps forward.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy, with other methods used as needed. That means some sessions focus on changing patterns of thought and behaviour, while others emphasise noticing experience and developing clearer values. EMDR and Emotionally-Focused Therapy may be used where trauma or relationship emotion work is relevant.
Susie has experience across many settings and with a broad range of concerns including grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping and eating problems, parenting, career strain and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, blended family tensions, control and communication problems, and substance-related difficulties.
Sessions generally move at a practical pace. Conversations aim to clarify what feels most important and to try doable strategies between sessions. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Susie commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centred Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that reflect their values. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns to reduce distress. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises listening and building on a persons own strengths and experiences to support clearer choices.Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Susie will discuss options with the client and agree a way forward together, matching methods to the persons goals and preferences rather than imposing a single technique.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break and avoid camera use if that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises such as behavioural experiments, values clarification and trauma-focused EMDR-informed strategies to remote settings when appropriate. Booking starts with a short questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.
