Suzie Bright, NCPS

Suzie Bright is a fully qualified counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who is insured to work with clients and is a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She follows the society's code of ethics and holds membership of the Association for Counselling and Therapy Online (ACTO), reflecting her experience offering therapy through remote formats.

Suzie trained in Transactional Analysis, a humanistic approach that focuses on increasing self-awareness, personal growth and lasting change by exploring patterns in thoughts, feelings and relationships. She often invites clients to incorporate art and creative methods into sessions to help express emotions and support therapeutic exploration when words alone are not enough.

Known for a culturally sensitive practice, Suzie pays careful attention to how experiences of oppression or discrimination related to race, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion, socio-economic status or ability can shape wellbeing. She encourages prospective clients to ask about her familiarity with their cultural context and whether her way of working feels like a good fit.

Suzie works empathically and collaboratively with people dealing with low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, loneliness, loss, anxiety and depression. She supports those seeking greater authenticity, helping to reduce self-criticism, build self-compassion, establish healthy boundaries and develop self-care. She offers practical guidance for perfectionism and people-pleasing and provides presence and support through bereavement and life transitions.

Open times are correct as of 13.10.25 and are subject to change. Sessions may be in progress during posted hours, and she typically responds to messages within 24 hours on weekdays.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Work and Personal Growth

Transactional Analysis is central to Suzie's practice - a humanistic method that helps people recognise repeated patterns in thoughts, feelings and interactions so they can increase self-awareness and make different choices in relationships and daily life. It is useful for issues such as relationship difficulties, attachment concerns and improving communication.

She also integrates creative and art-based techniques to support emotional expression and exploration when speaking alone may feel limiting. Using imagery, drawings or other creative exercises can help clients process grief, access difficult feelings and discover new perspectives on identity and self-worth.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Suzie works with each person to identify which techniques suit their needs, goals and preferences, adapting the way she works as therapy progresses so that clients feel understood and supported.

Online therapy with Suzie is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing greater flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access a licensed professional from home or elsewhere, while preserving the therapeutic relationship and focus on meaningful change.
