ABOUT

Welcome to SE Wellbeing. My name is Susan and I am delighted that you have taken the time to visit this site. If you have recently experienced a loss of any kind, perhaps I can help you move through this? 

My core training is in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), specifically Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT, a form of CBT) which is at the heart of most of the work I do with my clients. 

While undertaking my CBT training I also I trained with Cruse Bereavement Care as a bereavement volunteer. There, I felt that I had found my niche in providing support.  Since losing a very close family member several years ago, I often wondered how people cope if they aren't fortunate enough to have a good network around them to carry them through. So I took one of the best decisions of my life and joined Cruse as a volunteer. I discovered that I am truly committed to helping people understand and manage the emotions that accompany loss. 

But loss isn't just about close family members of friends. perhaps you have recently lost a job, a relationship you cherished, your sense of identity (possibly since having children?). 

All of these losses can generate many overwhelming feelings and that's where our sessions together can help you.

In a one-to-one setting, you'll find a neutral place where you can express yourself freely and without judgement. You'll come to understand that you have the ability to tolerate difficulties and the courage to challenge yourself successfully. In challenging your deeply held beliefs, you can begin to establish new thinking and behaviour to help you move through the sense of loss and gain insight into managing your emotional wellbeing.

Throughout our work together I will introduce specific therapeutic concepts where we agree they will enhance your treatment. I will always discuss your needs and preferences with you and respect these. Your care and confidentiality are at the heart of my work.

Thank you for reading this information. If you would like to discuss treatment then please do contact me. I look forward to hearing from you when you are ready to take the next step towards emotional wellbeing.
