About Suzanne

Suzanne Bethell is a psychotherapist who supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, anxiety and low mood. She also helps with codependency, addiction concerns, stress and self-esteem issues. Suzanne works with people facing life changes and career pressures, and with those managing long-term conditions such as bipolar and depression.

Suzanne uses a range of counselling approaches so sessions can be shaped around what each person needs. She aims for a respectful and compassionate space where clients can talk through painful events and practical problems. Her style is straightforward and warm, with an emphasis on helping people notice small changes that matter.

She has nine years of experience and is registered with NCPS, which is listed as her credential. Suzanne has worked across different settings and also sees private clients in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English and she is able to work with international clients.

In practice she blends talking therapies that focus on current problems with work that looks at past hurts when that is helpful. She will listen first, then suggest ways to cope and experiment with new habits. Many people come for help with boundaries, communication problems, parenting strain and intimacy-related worries.

Suzanne encourages a collaborative pace. She supports people to set realistic goals and to review progress. If you are thinking about therapy she asks that you take the next step and complete the start process to arrange an initial match and session.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on giving the person space to talk and to be heard. It helps people who need a non-judgemental listener and who want to build their own solutions at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and experiments to change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and then suggest options. This will be a collaborative decision and may change as therapy progresses.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm the current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work from different locations and maintain contact when they cannot attend in person.
