About Sue
Sue Hunter offers warm, down-to-earth counselling for people facing life’s difficult moments. She writes in a straightforward way and listens without judgement. Many clients come with stress, anxiety, grief, relationship worries or changes that feel overwhelming.
Sue aims to help people find clearer footing and make choices that suit them. Sue works from a person-centred stance that trusts people’s own inner resources. She combines that with practical approaches when helpful, so sessions can include gentle enquiry, emotion work and techniques to change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
Conversations are paced to the individual and focus on what matters most right now. Her background includes 12 years in counselling and registration with the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, BACP, plus membership of the National Counselling Society, NCPS. Sue also uses complementary methods alongside talking therapy for people who choose them.
These can be discussed and agreed in session. Sessions explore how someone relates to themselves and others, and how that affects feelings and choices. The aim is greater self-awareness and clearer decision making.
Sue encourages practical steps as well as emotional reflection so progress can be felt between appointments. People come with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, sleeping and eating difficulties, parenting strain and work stress. Sue adapts her approach to each person’s needs and preferences while keeping the focus on their goals.

How Sue's approaches translate to online therapy
Sue commonly blends person-centred work with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Person-centred work focuses on listening and helping the client find their own solutions. It suits people who want a supportive, non-judgemental space to talk. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and practising small changes to shift mood and functioning. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating difficulties. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people recognise and work with underlying emotions that drive patterns in relationships and self-view, which can aid healing after trauma or loss.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try techniques collaboratively, tailoring sessions to the client's goals, pace and preferences. Clients and therapist review what helps and adjust the plan as needed to find the best fit.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and use visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break or a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, reflection between sessions or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats add flexibility and make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy lives.
