Susan Vincent MSc, BACP

Susan Vincent MSc helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and relationship strain. She also supports those facing career uncertainty, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. Her first aim is to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and to take the first steps toward a change.

Susan adopts a warm, person-focused style in sessions. She aims to create an open atmosphere where clients can speak without judgement. Conversations are practical and honest, focusing on what matters most to the person in front of her.

Her approach draws on several therapy methods that suit different needs. She listens for patterns in how a person thinks and feels, and then works collaboratively to find ways forward. That may include looking at past experiences, spotting unhelpful habits, or identifying small, realistic goals to try between sessions.

Susan has 23 years of professional experience and holds a BACP registration, which is noted as her credential. She practises in the United Kingdom and offers help for a wide range of concerns including ageing and geriatric issues, blended family issues, cancer-related stress, communication problems, control issues, and life purpose questions.

People also come to her for support with hospice and end-of-life counselling, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, isolation and loneliness, midlife crises, and matters related to veterans and the armed forces. Work can address coping after disasters and the impact of trauma in daily life.

Therapy approaches you can use online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person and their experience, offering a compassionate, non-directive space to talk about feelings and choices. It can help when someone needs to rebuild confidence or find clarity in difficult decisions.

Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps and workable goals. It is useful when someone wants momentum and clear actions to try between sessions, such as coping strategies for stress or steps to improve communication.

Susan treats finding the right approach as a shared process. She will discuss options and try approaches that match a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative tone means methods can shift as the work proceeds and as priorities change.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, offering flexibility for different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue; phone sessions can fit a short break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer written communication. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
