Suzanne Lamb

My working hours vary and I do offer evenings and the occasional weekend as well as normal working hours. 

I will have limited availability over the summer of 2025, however I do offer on-line sessions.

I am an integrative psychotherapist with over 10 years experience, a background of 30+ yrs in nursing and acute trauma; offering support and techniques to help make changes in your life. I use different approaches of talking therapy using art or paly if helpful, solution focused work with trauma based therapy, CBT and hypnotherapy. 

I am a qualified hypnotherapist and work as a tutor teaching hypnotherapy / counselling skills diploma course.

I am a member of British Association of CFS/ME (BACME), working with people who are struggling with M.E., CFS, long covid - I aim to offer a 6 week program that supports changes that help reduce the fatigue.

I work with young people as well as adults to help with anxiety, stress, exam issues, general well being and self esteem issues with the aim to improve their ability to cope and return to enjoying an age appropriate life. Menopause is an interest and I work with women who need some support.

My work space is based in North Yorkshire and is a comfortable annex, the lounge is the dedicated work area with a sun room for relatives to wait as needed, bathroom and kitchen available.

I expect you be with me about 55-90 minutes depending on the needs of each session. I offer a mixed model of therapy based on the above details, unless requested to use one single approach. There is parking and no steps to the room. 

It is informal and relaxed, I do need a few details prior to starting but I keep the written information basic. 

I offer a free phone chat so you can ask questions or discuss the needs of yourself or child, follow up discussions for parents are usually free as well.

I prefer to work face to face but I'm happy to work on-line as well.

After the initial contact which may or may not include a phone chat, you arrive and settle in, a short form is filled in and we sit on the comfortable settee to find out what you need and how we will proceed, I like to consider different areas of life that may be causing stress or strain but this is entirely up the individual.

I have experience of working with clients who have a diagnosis of autism or ADHD, I also have worked with non verbal clients.
