Susanne (Susie) Robinson, BACP

Susanne (Susie) Robinson helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family problems and midlife questions. She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief, addictions and challenges around intimacy and parenting. Susie also works with people struggling with sleep or eating issues, anger, career uncertainty and finding life purpose.

She uses straightforward conversation to find what matters to each person. Sessions focus on strengths and practical steps rather than jargon. Susie treats each person as the expert in their own life and helps them notice resources they already have.

Susie draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy to suit different needs. She also uses Emotionally-Focused work and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing where helpful. These methods are mixed to fit what a person wants to achieve in therapy.

With 28 years of experience in a range of settings, Susie has supported people through major life changes, grief and compassion fatigue. She focuses on clear aims in sessions and practical ways to manage feelings and relationships.

Sessions are conducted in English from the United Kingdom. People are encouraged to bring what is most pressing to discuss and Susie will help set achievable steps toward change.

Approaches and online support for life change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values. It aims to reduce the hold of unhelpful thoughts and build a life that feels meaningful despite difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and introduces practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression and stress. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre and uses empathic listening to help people make their own sense of change and choice.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they will choose or combine methods that fit the person’s needs and aims rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins or letting someone work around commuting and work breaks. It can also make some practical therapies, such as CBT exercises or EMDR work, easier to continue between sessions when agreed with the therapist. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to keep therapy consistent with a person’s daily routine.
