Welcome

My name is Susan Lennox, and I offer Psychotherapy, Coaching and Focusing. Let me tell you a little about me and how I practice.

I bring a strengths–based approach to my work with my clients. I see them as  healthy, resourceful, whole persons. I strive to fully understand their coaching or therapeutic goals and co-design with them a plan of action that suits their needs and brings them the results they seek in an effective and efficient manner.

I use an integrated approach that calls upon the strengths of both the logical, linear parts of the brain and the creative, intuitive, holistically focused parts of the brain. In doing this I draw on principles and approaches from evidence-based modalities, including Focusing and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Learn more about these specific approaches here.

My style

Clients have described my personal style as caring, down-to-earth, empathic, insightful, and supportive. I bring compassion, curiosity and creativity to enabling my clients to move forward in their lives. What other clients have said about my style:

• “Very motivating, upbeat, and, dare I say, inspiring”
• “Grounded and creative – and gifted at turning possibilities into action”
• “Strikes a great balance between self-directed reflection and useful, practical feedback and suggestions”
• “Competence and compassion”

Services and Issues Treated

I offer an array of services that are suitable for helping with a spectrum of client needs, from coaching for practical life or work/business issues at one end of the spectrum to psychotherapy for deeper psychological and emotional issues at the other end.

While life issues never slot neatly into one category, the following will give you a general sense of the scope of issues I work with and the approach that often best fits those issues.

Of course, the right approach for any specific issue and any specific person can only be determined after a full assessment of their situation and understanding their goals.  I will keep you informed of the processes we are using and answer your questions at each step of our work together. You will be a full partner in determining the course of our work together.
