Suzanne Bethell

Suzanne Bethell is a psychotherapist who helps people dealing with anger, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. She supports those facing loss, trauma, addiction and major life changes. Suzanne works in a straightforward, respectful way and aims to make the first steps easier for anyone who feels stuck.

She uses a mix of counselling methods so each session meets the person’s needs. Suzanne draws on nine years of experience in different settings, including private work. She explains things plainly and focuses on what can change in day-to-day life.

Suzanne is registered with NCPS, which is noted in her professional details. She offers a calm space for people to talk through painful events, confusing feelings and stressful situations. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit the individual.

In practice she uses Client-Centred Therapy to help people feel heard and accepted, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to work on unhelpful thought patterns. Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused approaches are used when clients want practical steps or need support after traumatic events.

People often come for help with parenting strain, family conflict, intimacy issues, and career stress. Suzanne also supports those coping with grief, bipolar mood swings, or compassion fatigue. She encourages small, manageable changes and helps clients build skills they can use after therapy.

To begin, Suzanne asks clients to share what matters most to them and then tailors sessions to those goals. The focus is on creating realistic steps and building confidence to handle everyday challenges.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Suzanne commonly draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance so people feel understood and can explore their feelings at their own pace; it helps with low mood, relationship difficulties and self‑esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and gives practical steps to change unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, anger and coping with stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Suzanne discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and works together with the client to decide which methods fit best. This collaborative decision helps shape the plan and the pace of therapy.

The practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions around work or family life, avoiding travel time, and using shorter check‑ins when needed.

Registered or accredited professionals like Suzanne can adapt techniques for remote conversations to focus on problem solving, emotional regulation and trauma processing, helping clients apply new skills in everyday life.
