About Susan
Susan John is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, anger, depression and life changes, and lists life purpose among her focuses. She also supports people facing relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD and compassion fatigue.
Susan uses a mix of methods to suit each person’s needs. She focuses on how thoughts and bodily sensations connect to emotions. In sessions she helps people notice patterns, practise breathing and mindfulness exercises, and learn coping techniques for hard moments.
She works with adults and younger people, offering both short-term coping strategies and longer conversations to explore deeper issues. Susan believes clients have strengths they can build on, and she helps them apply those strengths to practical change. Conversations are direct and honest, emphasising insight and clearer choices.
Her background includes client-centred approaches and emotionally-focused work that looks at feelings in relationships. She also uses hypnotherapy and mindfulness methods where these fit a person’s goals. Over four years she has worked with a range of concerns including identity, cultural issues and career questions.
People considering sessions are invited to think about what they want to address first. Susan uses straightforward tools alongside reflective talk. She asks about current stresses, sleep and daily routines to shape sessions that fit the person’s life.
To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Susan draws on client-centred work and emotionally-focused therapy to help people notice feelings and the patterns that keep them stuck. Client-centred work means the conversation centres on the person’s experience and priorities, helping them name what matters and try small changes. Emotionally-focused therapy looks at how feelings show up in relationships and personal choices, useful when intimacy, communication or attachment issues are part of the problem.She also uses mindfulness exercises to ground attention in the body and breath, and may introduce hypnotherapy techniques for focused relaxation and shifting unhelpful patterns. These methods are offered as tools to support practical goals like reducing anxiety, improving sleep or managing anger rather than as guarantees of a specific outcome.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Susan will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before, and then test methods collaboratively to see what fits. That can mean trying a short series of focused sessions for coping skills or opening a longer block of reflective work.
The therapist’s original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered and accredited professionals often use these approaches to help people bring therapy into everyday life.
