About Suzie

Suzie Hazlehurst is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy worries, low self-esteem, motivation problems and addiction concerns. She also supports clients facing trauma, grief, sleep difficulties and life changes.

Suzie takes a straightforward, person-focused approach in sessions. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them notice strengths they already have. Conversations are practical and aimed at building emotional awareness and clearer choices.

In sessions she uses ideas from attachment work to look at how past relationships affect present ones. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thinking patterns and on emotionally focused methods to help with closeness and connection. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck about change.

Suzie commonly helps people who struggle with codependent patterns such as people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, or losing a sense of self around others. She will identify small, achievable steps to improve boundaries and self-direction rather than promising quick fixes.

Her work also covers a wide range of other concerns including parenting strain, chronic health issues, body image, abandonment experiences and attachment issues. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first meeting.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships. It can help people understand patterns of closeness, fear of abandonment and difficulty trusting others. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical changes to thoughts and habits. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and behaviour patterns that keep problems going. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions in relationships and can help when intimacy and connection feel difficult or confusing.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as clients notice what helps most.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. Different ways of meeting can suit different needs - for example a quieter audio call can be easier to manage on a busy day, while a longer video session may help when working on sensitive relationship issues.
