Sue is based in the United Kingdom and brings six years of practice to her work as a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Background and approach
She focuses on listening closely and reflecting back what matters to each person. This makes it easier to notice patterns and choose different ways of responding. Sessions are offered with warmth and without judgement.
She uses a client-centred stance to help people find their own answers rather than prescribing solutions. Sue also draws on existential ideas to help people face difficult life choices and find personal meaning. Solution-focused techniques are used when practical, short-term changes are needed to ease immediate strain.
Sue has worked with national and local charities and within workplace and health settings. That experience includes supporting people through bereavement and a range of mental health difficulties. Those roles shaped her practical, straightforward way of working with people in distress.
People who come to Sue usually want direct, compassionate help to get through a hard patch. She encourages simple, achievable steps and ongoing reflection so progress can be noticed. If you are considering therapy, Sue offers a steady, person-centred approach to help you move forward.

Approaches online and how they help
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the relationship between counsellor and person. It involves empathic listening and reflecting so people can find their own answers; it suits worries about identity, self-esteem and relationship strain.Existential Therapy looks at choices, values and meaning in life. It can help when big changes, grief or questions about direction feel overwhelming and leave someone stuck.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps that can change day-to-day life. It is useful when people want practical ways to reduce stress, improve communication or tackle a specific problem.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and choose methods together. This is a collaborative process that may change over time as needs shift.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when needed, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging can fit around busy schedules. These options make therapy more accessible across different routines and locations.
