About Suzanne

Suzanne Ellis is an accredited counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and 19 years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strains, addiction and anger. Sessions are presented in straightforward language and focus on practical ways to cope when emotions feel overwhelming.

Suzanne uses person-centred principles alongside Gestalt and EMDR approaches. In conversation she helps people talk through painful memories, strong feelings and recurring patterns that cause friction at work or at home. She aims to help clients notice how they respond to stress and try different ways of handling it.

Her training includes a Masters in Counselling, an Advanced Diploma in Gestalt Therapy, a Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling and EMDR certification. She also holds a level 6 Certificate in therapeutic supervision and has provided supervision to counsellors and healthcare professionals.

Suzanne describes counselling as a place to explore thoughts and feelings without judgement. Sessions include space to reflect on grief, attachment issues, body image, parenting strain, ADHD-related concerns and career stress. She also works with people affected by trauma and abuse and with those dealing with long-term illness or caregiver stress.

Practical skills such as grounding, mindfulness and emotion-regulation strategies appear alongside longer work on past events when relevant. To begin, clients follow the site’s matching process and schedule an initial session to discuss goals and the first steps.

Sessions are conducted in English and Suzanne practises from the United Kingdom. She does not accept international clients at this time.

How Suzanne’s approaches are used when working online

Suzanne uses person-centred work to listen closely and follow what matters most to the client. That approach focuses on understanding a person’s experience and helping them name feelings and hopes, which can make angry reactions easier to examine.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when past events keep causing strong emotional reactions. EMDR is a structured way of working with distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming over time. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with grounding, reducing physiological arousal and bringing attention back into the present when frustration rises.

Choosing the right method is part of the work. Suzanne will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable in early sessions, and then suggest how different approaches might fit. That decision is made together and can change as needs evolve.

Session formats are not listed in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy around work and family easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Registered and accredited professionals often find that video or phone sessions help people maintain continuity of care and build skills in day-to-day settings.
