About

About Susan

Susan Zammit is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, eating concerns and parenting challenges. She also supports those dealing with trauma, low self-esteem, anger and life transitions. With 11 years of experience, she offers steady, practical support in plain language.

Susan uses a person-centred style that keeps the conversation focused on what matters to each client. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, helping people notice unhelpful thinking and try new ways of coping.

Background and approach

Sessions are tailored to the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. Susan has worked in a range of settings, including educational environments, prison services and with the National Bereavement Partnership. That range has shaped a flexible approach to different life situations and losses.

She aims to meet people where they are and help them build small, manageable steps forward. In sessions she listens without judgement and encourages practical experiments between meetings. Her style is straightforward and supportive, with a focus on skills you can use day to day.

People who choose her often want clear tools alongside a warm, respectful space to talk. Susan is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers help in English and is available to international clients.

To begin you complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions that suit your schedule.

Online support

Approach and benefits of online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations of safety and trust. In practice this means exploring patterns that affect current relationships and helping people try different ways of connecting or setting boundaries.

Client-Centred Therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor offers acceptance and careful listening while clients lead the pace and topics of discussion, which can be helpful for building self-understanding and confidence.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises and experiments to shift unhelpful thinking and test new behaviours, which is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will choose or blend approaches so the plan fits the person's needs and day-to-day life.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when video is difficult, and live chat or text messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility for different rhythms of work, travel, access to quiet spaces and internet bandwidth, while still allowing meaningful therapeutic progress.
