About Susanna

Susanna Newsome is a counsellor who helps people dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, career uncertainty and big life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely, offering support as people take the first steps towards a more fulfilling life. Susanna works in English and Italian and brings 17 years of professional experience to her work.

She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what is worrying them. Conversations focus on what matters to the client and on practical ways to cope with day-to-day pressure. Susanna is trauma informed and pays attention to the challenges of dyslexia in adulthood.

Clients often come with concerns such as compassion fatigue, workplace difficulties, body image or struggles with life purpose. She also supports people facing caregiver stress, communication problems, immigration-related issues, hoarding, impulsivity and isolation or loneliness. Sessions aim to help people clarify what they want and plan manageable steps forward.

Susanna uses a client-centred approach, adapting the pace and focus to each person. She encourages self-compassion and clearer decision making rather than prescribing one fixed solution. The emphasis is on listening, reflection and practical strategies that fit everyday life.

Her bilingual practice covers the United Kingdom and Italy contexts, and she accepts international clients. Taking that first step can feel daunting, and Susanna offers steady support as people work towards change.

How client-centred work fits with online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and letting the person lead the conversation. The therapist reflects back what is said, helps the person clarify their feelings and supports them to find their own solutions. This approach can be useful for relationship worries, life changes, and feelings of isolation or loneliness.

Susanna blends that person-led stance with sensitivity to trauma and to learning differences such as dyslexia in adulthood. She works collaboratively to find the pace and style that suit each person, discussing goals and preferences together rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Many people find online work helpful because it can fit more easily into a busy week and reduce travel time. Online sessions can make it simpler to schedule shorter check-ins, to choose quieter timings, or to meet from a convenient location. The biography does not list specific formats, so confirm the current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often use online work to keep therapy accessible while tailoring sessions to individual needs.
