Susanna Newsome , BACP, NCPS

Susanna Newsome offers calm, practical help for people facing relationship strain, trauma, career uncertainty and major life changes. She is listed with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and NCPS, and brings 17 years of experience to sessions. Susanna speaks English and Italian and can work with clients in either language.

She focuses on creating a straightforward, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what feels hard. Sessions aim to make feelings clearer and practical next steps more visible. Susanna is trauma informed and mindful of the needs of people with dyslexia in adulthood.

Her approach is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy, which means the conversation is guided by the client's concerns and pace. She helps clients name what they want to change, decide on manageable steps, and build confidence to try them out. The work often covers relationships, work pressures, and coping after difficult events.

Sessions can include time to sort out practical problems, rehearse difficult conversations, or reflect on patterns that keep repeating. She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, body image worries, caregiver stress, and feelings of isolation. Susanna aims to help people find clearer direction and greater self-compassion.

Clients who choose her can expect a collaborative style and straightforward feedback. If you want a counsellor who listens, helps you find options, and keeps things down to earth, she may be a good fit.

How Susanna works online and what to expect

Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's experience at the heart of the work. Sessions concentrate on listening, reflecting and helping people clarify what matters most to them. This approach suits issues such as relationship worries, coping with life changes, and rebuilding after trauma by letting the person set the pace and focus.

Susanna combines that client-led stance with practical conversation about next steps and coping strategies. She pays attention to how dyslexia in adulthood and trauma histories can shape communication and will adapt the way she works to fit each person's needs. Deciding which methods to use is a collaborative process based on your goals, preferences and day-to-day demands.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, written reflection, or when being on camera is difficult. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or irregular schedules and keep contact consistent across time zones for international clients.
