About Martin
Martin Sugg is a counsellor with 12 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. He helps people who are feeling stressed or anxious, and those managing addiction, grief, low self-esteem or depression. Martin aims to make sessions straightforward and practical so people can find relief from worrying thoughts and rebuild confidence.
He creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings and life changes. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small steps that can make a difference.
Background and approach
Martin uses everyday language and clear ideas rather than jargon, so sessions stay simple and helpful. His work draws on ways of understanding relationships and emotions, and on practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. That means looking at how past connections shape current reactions, and also practising skills to cope with stress or low mood.
People working with him often explore issues such as intimacy, communication, parenting pressures and career stress. Martin is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He offers sessions by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different needs.
International clients who speak English may also arrange sessions. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book sessions according to the therapist's schedule. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections influence current feelings and reactions. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect anxiety, trust and intimacy. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's pace. The therapist offers acceptance and reflection so people can find their own answers and build self-esteem.Choosing an approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk through what you want to achieve and suggest which methods might help most. Together you can try different ways of working and adapt the style to suit your goals and preferences.
Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into day-to-day life. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good option during a short break at work. Text or live chat can suit quick check-ins, brief reflections or people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility and make it simpler to maintain regular contact with a therapist from different locations.
