About Sue
Sue Aylott is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She offers calm, straightforward support for people facing relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem or life changes. Sue works from the view that people know their own story and already have strengths to build on.
Sue describes therapy as a partnership. She listens carefully and helps clients notice patterns that keep problems repeating.
Background and approach
Practical tools are offered alongside chance to talk about painful experiences and emotions. Sessions are paced to suit each person rather than a fixed timetable. Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques to address how past relationships and current thoughts affect day-to-day life.
Mindfulness practices are used to help with stress, while client-centred work keeps the person’s priorities at the heart of the sessions. Imago relationship ideas are available for those focusing on intimacy and communication. Sue has around ten years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She works with a wide range of concerns including trauma, addiction, parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic health worries and issues around identity and intimacy. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their timetable.
Therapeutic approaches and online therapy choices
Sue uses attachment-based work to look at how past relationship patterns influence current reactions. This approach helps people who struggle with trust, closeness or repeating relational patterns by tracing how early bonds affect adult behaviour.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT offers practical steps and exercises that can reduce anxiety and lift mood by changing the way people think and act.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sue works together with each person to decide which ideas and techniques suit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs shift, and the plan is regularly reviewed in sessions.
Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to match different lifestyles. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat works for shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflections between sessions. These options help fit therapy around work, family and mobility needs while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional understanding.
