About Me

This includes supporting both those who have experienced abuse and those who have caused harm. Susan helps clients address underlying patterns and move towards healthier ways of relating. Her approach focuses on understanding personal experiences and fostering lasting change. She is an empathetic guide for sensitive conversations.

Approach

When difficult sexual experiences or harmful behaviours surface, I focus on steady, non-judgemental collaboration that centres your safety and choice. I offer appointments in Hastings and secure online sessions in English, pacing work to suit adolescents, couples and individuals. Sessions combine careful assessment, reflective conversation and practical skills between meetings to reduce distress, rebuild boundaries and explore patterns that maintain problems. Those seeking to take responsibility, heal and form healthier connections tend to find this clear, patient way of working helpful.
