About Susanna
Susanna "Susan" Abraham is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Susan works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties, and she offers support for addictions, grief and trauma.
Susan creates a calm, compassionate space where clients can talk about what matters to them. She focuses on helping people notice patterns in their feelings and relationships.
How Susanna works
Together they set practical goals and try small changes that build resilience over time. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas about how relationships shape feelings, client-centred listening to follow the person’s experience, and cognitive-behavioural techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. She also uses elements of emotionally-focused work to explore strong emotions and existential ideas about meaning and purpose.
Sessions can include straightforward skills practice, exploring relationship patterns, and times to reflect on life choices and values. Susan aims to balance practical tools with deeper conversation so people leave with new ways to cope. She offers appointments by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and she accepts international clients.
Fees vary by location and are set through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help
Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape emotional responses and patterns. It can be helpful for people struggling with closeness, trust or repeated relationship difficulties.Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience without judgment. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore what matters and decide on next steps.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, offers practical techniques to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It suits issues like anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties where clear steps and homework can make a difference.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and the issues at hand, and then suggest ways to proceed. That choice is made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short updates, reflective writing or when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or family commitments while still working with experienced registered or accredited professionals.
