Susan Harvey

I am currently not taking on new clients. 

It will be July 2024 before I will have availability. 

I am a qualified accredited counsellor with 26 years experience working across the lifespan. I am currently working with adults only. 

During my 27 years of continuous practice I have developed specialisms in addiction and complex mental health. I have worked extensively with anxiety and depression and psychological trauma stemming from abuse.

I offer a confidential non-judgmental counselling service that will give a regular space and time for you to explore any issues/problems that may be causing you stress or anxiety and help you find new ways to live your life more effectively.

I have 27 years experience  that I have gained from working for  Relate, NICAS, Threshold, FPA, Contact, Cruse, Lifeline, Carecall and Nexus. I have gained a broad range of experience working with all relationships (couples, parent- child, siblings), addiction, self harm and suicide, anxiety and depression, sexual abuse and bereavement.

I have helped clients to resolve underlying causes for symptomatic behaviours and to find the resources and coping strategies to live life unburdened by the past.

I offer everyone a free introductory consultation to discuss your reasons for coming to counselling and to ensure that you feel comfortable with me. This initial consultation will last approximately 1/2 hour. 

I currently not available for new supervisees. 

I will have availability after July 2024

I have over 27 years of counselling experience and I have worked as a supervisor from 2010 (13 years experience). 

I have experience of supervising both qualified and trainee counsellors (qualified and trainees) working in a variety of local charitable organisations. I have helped and supported qualified counsellors setting up a private practice and those working in an already established private practice. In addition I offer therapeutic supervision to non-counsellors. 

I have direct counselling experience in addiction, psychological trauma stemming from abuse, identifying and managing risk, interpersonal issues, bereavement and loss, and complex mental health. My client are across the the lifespan with children, teens, adults, couples and families. I have also supervised counsellors working with these presenting issues and age groups. 

I like to offer everyone a free introductory consultation to discuss your supervision needs, expectations, to explain how I work and to ensure that you feel comfortable with me.
