About Susanna
Susanna "Susan" Abraham is a BACP counsellor who has worked in the field for 15 years. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck by creating a calm, compassionate space to talk through what matters most. Susan aims to help clients build hope, resilience and clearer goals for change.
She uses a person-centred stance so people feel heard and respected in sessions. That approach is combined with methods that look at emotions, patterns of attachment and practical thinking strategies to make sense of recurring difficulties.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative - goals are set together and progress is reviewed as therapy continues. Susan has supported people with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief and addiction. She also helps with relationship and communication problems, self-esteem, sleep and eating issues, and the challenges that come with major life changes.
Additional focus areas include trauma and abuse, anger, caregiving stress and attachment-related difficulties. Her work can involve looking at how early attachment patterns shape current relationships and emotions. She also uses cognitive-behavioural ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and small steps to try in daily life.
The overall aim is to help people feel more able to manage tough emotions and make clearer choices. Susan offers sessions in English and works with both UK-based and international clients. Therapy is available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging and is organised through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on how emotions shape relationships and personal patterns. Online sessions using EFT-style work help people notice and name strong feelings and try new ways of responding in relationships or within themselves.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current trust and closeness. In an online setting this often means mapping patterns in present relationships and practising different interaction styles to feel safer and more connected.
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens carefully, offers reflection and helps clients find their own answers rather than telling them what to do.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has worked before, then use elements from these approaches together. That collaborative planning helps shape sessions so they fit practical needs and emotional aims.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when greater connection is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days. Live chat and text messaging make shorter check-ins and ongoing reflections possible between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel.
