About Susannah
Susannah "Susy" Rudkin helps people who feel stuck by tackling overthinking, self-doubt and habits that sap confidence. She offers down-to-earth support so clients can notice unhelpful patterns and find calmer ways of responding. Susy works in the United Kingdom and brings 17 years of experience to her practice.
Her approach is practical and present-focused. Sessions look at thoughts, reactions and relationship patterns rather than long histories. Susy draws on Systemic ideas to see problems in the context of relationships and daily life, and uses acceptance and cognitive techniques to help people change unhelpful habits.
Background and approach
Clients come with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and addictions. She also supports people with issues around intimacy, eating and sleeping, parenting pressures, career worries and burnout. Additional areas of focus include attachment and communication difficulties, ADHD, and personality-related problems such as avoidant or dependent patterns.
Susy combines client-centred listening with goal-focused tools so sessions feel practical. She may use exercises that help people notice beliefs, try small changes and practise new ways of coping between meetings. The emphasis is on building clarity, calm and confidence over time.
She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Online support
How Susy uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and patterns of avoidance. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape the ways people connect and respond to others and can help with trust, intimacy and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Susy will talk through your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. The decision is collaborative and may adapt as you progress to make sure the approach fits what you want to change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility for different schedules and practical needs while keeping the focus on clear, usable tools.
