About Susanne
Susanne Guy is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and addiction. She also supports people dealing with self‑esteem, grief, intimacy issues, sleeping or eating difficulties, and work or parenting stress. Susanne uses a warm, non‑judgemental style to help people feel heard and understood.
She works in a way that values the person’s own experience. Sessions focus on understanding past patterns and how they affect day‑to‑day life now.
Background and approach
That practical focus aims to help people discover coping skills they can use between meetings. Susanne describes her approach as integrative. She draws on client‑centred principles to build trust and respect, and on somatic ideas to bring attention to body sensations linked to emotions.
She also uses existential and Jungian perspectives and motivational interviewing where these fit a person’s needs. In the room she listens for what matters most to each person. Conversations are collaborative rather than directive.
The aim is to help people make sense of their experiences and to choose steps they want to try. Susanne holds BACP accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has five years’ experience working with a broad range of concerns in the United Kingdom.
Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Bringing somatic and person‑centred work online
Susanne uses somatic ideas to help people notice how emotions show up in the body. That can mean gentle attention to breath, posture or tension to understand how feelings and body sensations connect. This approach can be useful for people dealing with trauma, anxiety or chronic stress.She also draws on client‑centred therapy, which puts the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The counsellor offers empathy and reflection so people can speak freely and make sense of their thoughts. Existential ideas are used too, to help people reflect on meaning, choices and how to move forward when life feels uncertain.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the person to choose methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative discussion helps to shape what happens in sessions and what to try between meetings.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging. These options make therapy flexible for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. They also allow work on body awareness and reflective conversation in ways that fit modern life, helping people to access support where and when it suits them.
