About Susan
Susan Humphreys is a person-centred counsellor and psychotherapist with six years of practice in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and focuses on helping people through loss, stress and life changes. Her style is gentle and respectful, aimed at making it easier to speak about difficult feelings.
Susan listens without judgement and works to understand what matters most to each person. Sessions are shaped around the individual's needs rather than a fixed agenda.
Background and approach
She aims to create space for people to make sense of grief, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. Her work often addresses relationship-related concerns such as abandonment, attachment and commitment questions. She also supports people facing chronic illness, cancer, caregiver stress and the practical and emotional issues that accompany those situations.
Susan offers help with feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame and isolation, and helps people consider life purpose and next steps after major changes. She tailors conversations to what each person brings, balancing empathetic listening with gentle challenge when useful. People meet Susan to talk through bereavement, separation, chronic health worries or simply to find steadiness when life shifts.
Her approach is straightforward and human so that talking about hard things feels more manageable.

Online support
Therapy that attends to attachment and relationship themes looks at how past connections shape present feelings. This can help with abandonment, commitment worries and jealousy by exploring patterns and testing new ways of relating. These approaches are adaptable to online sessions and focus on what each person wants to change.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which techniques suit their goals and preferences. That conversation starts early and can change as the work continues to ensure the best fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for a deeper face-to-face feel, phone can be used when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and different time zones, while keeping continuity between sessions.
