Suzanne Ellis offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or big life changes. She helps those struggling with low self-esteem, addiction, sleep or eating issues, and difficult emotions related to trauma or loss.
Suzanne works in a way that aims to make it easier to talk about painful things and to find clearer ways to cope and move forward. Suzanne uses person-centred and attachment-informed approaches to build a trusting working relationship.
Background and approach
She also uses EMDR to address distress linked to traumatic memories, and incorporates mindfulness to help manage anxious thoughts and bodily tension. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her, with practical skills and emotional processing as needed.
Her background includes a Master’s degree in counselling, an Advanced Diploma in Gestalt therapy, and a Diploma in person-centred counselling. Suzanne is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She also holds a certificate in telephone and online counselling and a level 6 certificate in therapeutic supervision.
Over 19 years Suzanne has worked with a wide range of concerns including depression, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, compassion fatigue, parenting strain, and bereavement. She pays particular attention to attachment-related themes, abandonment and adoption issues, and long-term health or caregiving stresses. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Therapy is provided via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How Suzanne’s approaches work online
Suzanne uses attachment-informed work to look at how early relationships shape current emotions and patterns. This helps when trust, closeness or ongoing worry about relationships makes daily life harder. She also uses EMDR to help process distressing or traumatic memories; EMDR involves guided eye movement or similar bilateral stimulation alongside focused recall to reduce the intensity of painful memories.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Suzanne will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Decisions are collaborative and may change as progress is made or needs shift.
Online therapy here can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection or people who find words flow better in text. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments or mobility needs and to keep therapy consistent when life is busy.
