About Suzy

Suzy Cheong trained in the United Kingdom and holds a Master’s degree in Pluralistic counselling. She has four years of professional experience, including time as a university counsellor and in independent practice. Suzy works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, low self-esteem and ADHD.

She aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and straightforward for worried parents reading on a phone. Suzy believes the person in front of her is the expert on their own life.

How Suzy works

She looks for each person’s strengths and uses them to tackle current problems. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear conversation rather than jargon. The tone is collaborative and down-to-earth.

Her background in university counselling means she is used to helping people through big life transitions and academic pressures. In independent practice she has worked with a broader range of everyday concerns like body image, communication problems and social anxiety. Suzy brings this mix of settings into sessions to adapt to different needs.

She supports people dealing with guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, and aims to rebuild confidence and self-love. Therapy is paced to fit each person, with space for practical tools and time for conversation about what matters most. Suzy emphasises building a strong working relationship as the foundation for change.

Appointments are intended to feel collaborative and respectful. Suzy helps clients set clear goals and works alongside them to try things that might help in daily life. The approach is steady, encouraging and focused on small, achievable steps.

Online support options

Approaches that guide online counselling

Pluralistic counselling offers a flexible way of working that draws on different therapeutic ideas chosen together. It focuses on what the person prefers and finds helpful, and it can be useful for stress, anxiety and questions about identity or motivation.

Sessions that emphasise strengths and practical steps involve identifying useful skills the client already has and testing small changes. This approach often helps with low self-esteem, body image and day-to-day coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. The therapist will talk through goals, what has helped before, and what feels most comfortable, then tailor techniques and pace to match the client's needs and preferences.

Online therapy makes it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters, phone sessions work well if bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility for different schedules and practical constraints while keeping the focus on progress and practical support.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
