Susan Walker , BACP

Susan Walker is a UK-based therapist with 25 years of professional experience who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem and confidence. She works with each person to understand their situation and to create a responsive plan that reflects their particular needs and goals.

Holder of BACP, Susan is associated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. Her practice emphasizes respectful, sensitive and compassionate care delivered in a way that honours each individual’s background and preferences.

Susan tailors conversations and therapeutic work to the client rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach, blending practical tools with a supportive therapeutic stance. She recognises that taking the first step toward a more satisfying and happier life takes courage, and she offers steady, nonjudgmental support throughout that process.

Practical Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to clarify personal values to guide meaningful action. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and patterns of avoidance that interfere with daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT helps identify and gently challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours while teaching practical coping skills. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and stress-related concerns.

Client-Centered Therapy - This approach prioritises empathy and collaboration, creating a supportive space where clients explore their experience and grow at their own pace. It can help with relationship issues, confidence, and emotional recovery following trauma.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Susan works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as the work progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone, as well as live chat and text-based messaging, allow people to access licensed professionals from home, work or while travelling. These options make scheduling easier and help maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change.
