Suzannah Chick

In light of the recent outbreak of Covid-19, I am currently seeing clients only via online or via telephone until further notice. Please contact me for availability.

Thanks so much for visiting my page. My name is Suzie and I am a qualified therapist, and registered member of BACP. I named my practice, Compass Counselling, as sometimes we can feel a little lost in our lives. We all need some space and time to help find ourselves and potentially embark on some new and exciting directions.  As your therapist, I will act as guide or compass, to help explore your way through the fog to a new horizon. Through our work together, you can have the much needed space to reflect and process where you are in your life, how you got there and importantly where you may want to go next. 

Please note that I normally see clients in person at my private home in Richmond or via online (or via telephone). Currently I am working only online/via telephone, (please see my website for current availability).

I’ve worked successfully with a wide range of issues including burn-out at work, domestic abuse, panic attacks, anger management, social anxiety, grief and depression (to name but a few).

I don’t prescribe to one specific area, preferring to work with what you decide to bring to therapy, thereby embracing the wide diversity of issues which can arise out of our varied lives.

Once you’ve made contact with me, we’ll either arrange an initial session or maybe have a brief telephone call to start with. Some clients prefer to have a call as a way to touch base with me without the commitment of attending a face to face session. The call is free and you are under no obligation to proceed with therapy.

In our first session, we’ll assess what issues are going on for you (e.g. relationships, family, health etc) and I’ll gather some basic contact information too. At the end of this first session, we’ll agree a way forward and cover any questions you may have.

After that we’ll meet every week for your sessions (with regular reviews along the way, the first one being on your sixth session).
