About Susan

Susan Vincent MSc is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing career challenges, major life changes and compassion fatigue. She welcomes conversations about motivation, confidence and recovery from trauma.

With 23 years of experience, she aims to make sessions straightforward and conversational. She creates a calm space where clients can talk without feeling judged. The first meetings focus on what matters now and practical next steps.

Her work draws on client-centred ideas that place the person's experience at the heart of the session. She also uses psychodynamic thinking to consider how past experiences shape current patterns. Solution-focused techniques help set clear, achievable goals and notice small changes.

When grief, loss or life transitions are present, she offers space to make sense of difficult emotions and to plan manageable steps forward. For people dealing with distress after traumatic events, trauma-focused approaches are used to reduce overwhelm and build coping skills.

Susan describes herself as a supportive guide who aims to empower people to make choices that fit their values. She encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes. If someone wants to begin, she asks a few practical questions to match priorities and scheduling before the first session.

How her approaches work well online

Client-centred work focuses on listening and following the person's lead. Online sessions allow time to talk things through so the client feels heard and understood, which suits issues like anxiety, low confidence and relationship worries.

Psychodynamic approaches look at patterns that come from past experience and how they appear now. In online sessions this can help people spot repeated behaviours and try out different responses between meetings.

Solution-focused work aims to set small, practical goals and notice what changes. That method is useful for people needing clear steps for stress, career decisions or life transitions and transfers easily to remote conversations.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences and agree together which methods to try. Plans can be adjusted as work progresses so the approach matches changing priorities.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people access help from their local area in the UK without changing daily routines.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
