Susan Morris , BACP

Susan Morris is a counsellor who works with adults and offers support for a wide range of emotional difficulties. She holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings three years of practice to her work. Susan aims to make the first steps straightforward and approachable for people who feel overwhelmed.

She listens with warmth and without judgement. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her, whether that is managing anxiety, coping with depression, or building self-esteem. Susan helps people spot patterns that keep them stuck and tries practical ways of shifting those patterns.

Susan uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings. She also draws on client-centred methods to create a respectful space where people lead the pace. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when helpful to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments.

Her work often includes concerns linked to parenting, family strain, bereavement and trauma. She also supports people facing life-stage issues such as ageing, fertility challenges, or caring for someone with illness. Many clients come to explore guilt, shame, or feelings of emptiness and loss.

Susan offers sessions by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. She accepts clients in the United Kingdom and also works with international clients in English. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions at a time that fits their life.

How Susan’s approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. Online sessions can use this approach to help people notice patterns in their close relationships and try new ways of connecting or setting boundaries.

Client-centred therapy means the person leads the conversation while the counsellor offers empathic listening and acceptance. This style helps people feel heard and can be especially useful when someone wants space to make sense of strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Susan will talk through goals and preferences and choose methods together with each person. That collaborative decision may combine listening, practical CBT tasks or mindfulness exercises depending on what the person needs.

Online therapy offers practical advantages. Video calls let you see facial cues and work more like an in-person session. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging suits short check-ins, reflective writing, or people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to arrange regular sessions and keep momentum in therapy.
