About Suzanne
Suzanne Ellis offers calm, steady support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, grief, anxiety or major life changes. She makes space for difficult feelings and helps clients work through trauma, relationship worries, self‑esteem issues and questions around adoption and foster care. Her approach aims to help people notice what they need, and find practical ways to cope day to day.
Suzanne practises in a person‑centred way that keeps the client's pace and priorities central. She also uses Attachment‑Based ideas to help people understand relationship patterns, and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) for processing traumatic memories. Mindfulness is woven into sessions to help with managing anxiety and stress.
With 19 years' experience and accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Suzanne combines several approaches to match each person's needs. She can also offer therapeutic supervision to other counsellors and healthcare professionals.
Sessions are intended to be a non‑judgemental space where clients can talk, reflect and practise new ways of coping. Suzanne aims to help people feel heard, understand their reactions, and take manageable steps towards feeling more in control.
If you have practical questions about fitting counselling into your life or how the work might help with adoption and foster care concerns, Suzanne encourages you to ask before booking so you can make an informed choice.
How these approaches work for online therapy
Suzanne draws on Attachment‑Based ideas and EMDR as part of her work. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice ways to change how they relate to others. EMDR involves guided processing of distressing memories to reduce their emotional charge and can be used when trauma is affecting daily life.She also uses person‑centred listening and mindfulness practices to help people manage anxiety and stress in practical ways. Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Suzanne will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit your needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt the work as you go.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. It can also let you use mindfulness exercises and EMDR‑informed processing from a familiar setting, while conversations can be paced to match your comfort. Registered or accredited professionals can explain how they will structure remote sessions to suit your situation.
