Susan Hewitt , BACP

Susan Hewitt is a counsellor with 13 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She also helps with trauma and abuse, self-esteem, motivation and confidence. Susan aims to make it easier to take the first steps towards change.

Susan creates a calm, accepting atmosphere where clients can talk openly about difficult feelings. She focuses on listening and understanding before suggesting ways forward. Conversations explore what matters most to the client and look for practical steps that fit their life.

Her work draws on approaches that attend to how people relate to themselves and others. She uses methods that look at thoughts and behaviours alongside life stories and emotional bonds. These help when people want clearer thinking, better coping skills or a different way to tell their story.

Susan has a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration, BACP, and brings over a decade of experience to each session. Her practice reflects that background while staying centred on what each person needs now.

People come to Susan for many reasons, including grief, addiction, body image, parenting strain, career worries and chronic health challenges. She offers practical conversations that aim to increase coping, find new options and rebuild confidence over time.

Approaches that suit online working

Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses. In online sessions this helps people understand patterns that affect trust, closeness and reactions to stress. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says, helping them find their own answers and build confidence through the conversation. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, works with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and offers practical tools to manage anxiety, low mood and stress.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The counsellor will discuss your goals and try different ways of working to see what fits best. Sessions are shaped around your preferences and what feels most helpful as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls suit those who prefer not to be on camera, and messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when a written approach feels easier. These formats make it simpler to fit sessions into work or family schedules and to continue support when travel or mobility are difficult.
