What You Can Expect from Psychotherapy
I aim to provide a warm and fully confidential space where you can be listened to fully and can express yourself freely without any judgment.
I offer practical tools to help you reduce stress, depression or anxiety, grow your confidence and find a gentler and more compassionate way to connect with yourself.
I work with people across Scotland - from Glasgow to the Highlands, and throughout the U.K.
You are welcome to a free 30 minute introductory chat on Zoom or on the phone.
“I am so grateful to Susan for giving me the tools to be a calmer, more confident version of myself. I now feel happier most of the time and when I’m not, I know how to deal with it”.
About my Approach to Psychotherapy
I bring both lived experience and professional training and combine this with compassionate listening and simple practical strategies you can use right away.
My formal training is in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic Counselling and Transpersonal Psychology, and I blend these into an integrative and holistic approach, weaving in techniques and tools from further training in somatic body-based therapy, mindfulness, compassion-focused therapy and positive psychology.
We would begin with a free 1/2 hour initial chat by phone or on Zoom.
“I thoroughly recommend Susan, she has been really helpful to me. She’s encouraging, patient and makes sense of what you’re going through. I’ve had breakthroughs and she has been there for all of it.”
