Susanne Guy
A warm, person-centred counsellor
About Susanne
Susanne Guy helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship worries, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addiction and grief. She also supports those dealing with intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, anger, career shifts and compassion fatigue. Susanne holds BACP accreditation and practices from the United Kingdom.
She writes in plain, supportive language and focuses on what you need now. Her style is down-to-earth and person-centred. Sessions aim to give space to talk without judgement.
Background and approach
Susanne listens for patterns and life events that might be keeping you stuck. She helps you notice feeling and behaviour cycles so decisions feel clearer. Susanne blends Client-Centred, Psychodynamic and Existential ideas to match each person’s needs.
That means she will offer empathetic listening, explore past patterns that still affect you, and help you consider choices and meaning in life. She also brings motivational techniques to support change when that is a goal. In practical terms sessions can include reflecting on difficult memories, identifying unhelpful habits, and trying small steps towards new routines.
Conversations are collaborative - she works alongside you rather than giving instructions. Over time the aim is to increase your self-understanding and day-to-day coping skills. Her background includes five years of counselling experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Susanne offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs.

Sessions & fees
Approaches that guide online sessions
Susanne draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy in her online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and meeting you where you are, which can help with low self-esteem, anxiety and relationship concerns. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from your past that repeat in the present, useful for trauma, attachment or recurring relationship issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Susanne will discuss different ways of working with you and decide together which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative discussion can change over time as your priorities shift and progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when that helps, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for people who prefer written reflection or need frequent check-ins between longer sessions. These options help therapy fit around work, caregiving and other commitments.
