Welcome to Ultraliving

I’m Susie Masterson. Founder of Ultraliving.

The name originally came from my love of marathon running, but I recognise that it also reflects a more fundamental approach to life.

The route to ultraliving is a personal journey. One that involves deepening our understanding of ourselves and others. I am passionate about relationships, because they impact every aspect of our lives.

My own journey to embody ultraliving, includes trauma healing, changes of career and location, exploration of neurodivergance, and relationships.

The interventions - from coaches and therapists - that supported and sustained me through these transitions inform my work today.

I have personal experience of every therapy and coaching approach I integrate as a practitioner. I look forward to sharing them with you.

I am a BACP registered integrative therapist and coach. I am also a qualified EMDR practitioner.

Following 20 years in the tech sector working in a variety of consulting, sales and performance coaching roles. I was fortunate enough to work with female founders at Google. My ‘lightbulb moment’ was noticing how so many of my clients benefitted from an integrated approach. They didn’t differentiate between their personal and professional challenges, it was all just life!

This motivated me to retrain in counselling and psychotherapy. A journey which has included training and working for Rape Crisis, and working with a counselling charity - both as therapist and strategist - to provide affordable counselling services to those on NHS waiting lists.

Now in private practice, I continue to train and work in an integrated way to provide the best experience for my clients.

I am a BACP media representative, and conference speaker. I regularly contribute to press coverage on trauma, relationships and workplace well being. Check out my regular advice column in My Weekly Magazine.

Feminist principles underpin all of my services, and many of my clients are in the LGBTQ+ communities.

I am neurodivergence informed and I work with individuals, couples and companies.
