I Can Help With

Are any of these familiar?

You don't have to be in crisis to seek support. Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply needing space to think clearly. If any of the following resonate, therapy could help.

😔

Depression & Low Mood

Persistent sadness, loss of interest, hopelessness, or emotional numbness that gets in the way of daily life.

😰

Anxiety & Constant Worry

Racing thoughts, fear of the future, panic attacks, or feeling on edge even when nothing is obviously wrong.

💔

Relationship Pain

Conflict with a partner, family tension, a painful breakup, or feeling lonely even around people you love.

⚡

Trauma & PTSD

Past experiences that still affect your daily life — flashbacks, nightmares, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness.

🔥

Stress & Burnout

Overwhelmed at work, in studies, or in caregiving. Exhausted, irritable, and running on empty.

🌀

Grief & Loss

Navigating bereavement, the end of a relationship, job loss, or any change that has left you grieving.

🪞

Low Self-Esteem

Feeling not good enough, constantly comparing yourself, or struggling to set boundaries in relationships.

🎓

Academic & Life Pressure

Student stress, career transitions, exam anxiety, identity questions, or major life decisions weighing you down.

"If you can name what you're feeling, we can work with it."

Common Questions

Everything you need to know

Is everything I share confidential? ▾
Yes — absolutely. All sessions are strictly confidential and governed by the CPB Code of Ethics. The only exceptions (required by law) are immediate risk of harm to yourself or others, or a court order. These are rare and would always be discussed with you first wherever possible.
What happens in the first session? ▾
The first session is a safe, relaxed conversation — not an interrogation. Susan will ask about what brought you in, a little about your background, and what you hope to get from therapy. There's no pressure to share everything at once. You set the pace. By the end, you'll have a rough plan for how to move forward together.
How many sessions will I need? ▾
It depends on your goals. Some people find 4–6 sessions enough for a specific issue. Others benefit from longer-term work. You're never locked in — you decide when you've gotten what you need, and the plan is always reviewed together.
Do you offer sliding-scale fees? ▾
Yes. A limited number of sliding-scale slots are available for students, low-income individuals, and community referrals. Please mention your situation when booking and Susan will do her best to accommodate you. Access to mental health support should not be determined by financial means.
Can I do online sessions from anywhere in the world? ▾
Yes — Susan offers secure, private teletherapy via Zoom and Microsoft Teams to clients anywhere in the world. All you need is a stable internet connection and a private space. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person for most concerns and are offered at the same professional rate.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule? ▾
Please give at least 24 hours notice. Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours notice may incur a 50% session fee. Life happens — Susan understands, and exceptions are made for genuine emergencies. Just communicate as early as possible via WhatsApp or call.
Do you work with teenagers? ▾
Yes. Susan works with adolescents and young people from age 12 upwards. Sessions for minors require parental/guardian consent, and parents may be involved in parts of the process where appropriate.
How do I pay for sessions? ▾
Sessions are paid via M-Pesa. After you submit a booking request and Susan confirms your slot, you'll receive M-Pesa payment instructions via WhatsApp or email. No payment is taken upfront — only once your session time is confirmed.
