Suzy Cheong, BACP

Suzy Cheong works as a counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She holds a Master’s in Pluralistic counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Suzy has provided support in university counselling and in private practice settings.

She helps people who struggle with stress and anxiety, and those dealing with trauma or abuse. She also supports people with eating concerns, low self-esteem and motivation, and attention-related difficulties such as ADHD. Additional areas she addresses include body image, social anxiety, loneliness, guilt and shame, communication problems, and self-love.

Suzy’s style is collaborative. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and aims to draw out strengths already present. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear conversation rather than jargon. Building a strong working relationship is central to how she works.

People can expect a calm, encouraging presence and straightforward talk about what matters to them. She supports clients to set goals and try manageable changes between sessions. Her background in university counselling informs a practical approach suited to people navigating study, work or life transitions.

Suzy offers work that is tailored to each person’s needs. She helps clients explore what they want to change and works together with them to find realistic ways forward. The emphasis is on steady progress and on recognising small successes along the way.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Pluralistic counselling is an approach that draws on different methods to suit the individual. It involves discussing a range of ways to work, then choosing techniques that match what feels most helpful. This method can be useful for people with mixed concerns such as anxiety, low self-worth and eating-related issues.

Brief, goal-focused techniques aim to break problems into manageable steps and build practical skills for everyday life. These approaches help with stress, motivation and improving confidence by setting small, achievable tasks and reviewing progress together.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try different strategies and adjust the plan as needed. This shared process helps align methods with a person's needs, priorities and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can suit people with limited bandwidth, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around study, work and family commitments and to choose the format that feels most comfortable.
