About Susan
Susan Vincent MSc is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 23 years of experience. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, low self-esteem and depression. She also focuses on career questions, life purpose and adjusting to major life changes.
Susan keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She listens, asks practical questions and helps people clarify what matters next. People often bring worries about motivation, confidence or past trauma, and she gives space to talk these through at a steady pace.
Her approach draws on client-centred and psychodynamic ideas alongside solution-focused methods. That means emphasis on the person's concerns in the moment, exploring patterns from the past that still matter, and identifying small, achievable steps forward. When trauma is present, trauma-focused methods are used to address its effects.
Susan has worked across a range of settings over two decades. That experience informs her practical style with people facing endings, bereavement, divorce or health crises, and those questioning what comes next in midlife or after retirement. She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue or isolation.
Sessions are held in English and Susan does not take international clients. Costs vary with location and are delivered through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches used in online counselling and how they help
Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting the client's experience. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change or understand about their life. Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that developed over time and how they affect current choices and relationships; it can be useful for recurring relationship problems and low self-esteem. Solution-focused methods concentrate on practical, short-term steps and small experiments that can build confidence and momentum.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust those choices as progress is made so sessions remain relevant to the person's needs.
The practical benefits of online work make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online options can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day and make it simpler to keep appointments when life is hectic. Registered or accredited professionals can use these options to make regular sessions more manageable while keeping the focus on the person's goals.
