About Sue

Sue Lynes is a counsellor who uses client-centred care to help people facing stress and anxiety. She works in a calm, accepting way so people can talk honestly about what’s going on. Sue aims to help people find clearer perspectives and practical steps that suit their life.

She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past relationships affect present feelings. That approach is useful when people struggle with intimacy, abandonment or attachment issues.

Background and approach

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to break big problems into manageable goals and small changes that can make a difference. Sue has six years of experience in both independent practice and volunteer roles. Her voluntary work has included supporting people affected by sexual and domestic abuse.

She also provides counselling for neonatal bereavement, helping parents process loss and grief. Those experiences have shaped a gentle, non-judgemental style. Sessions aim to build confidence and help people spot practical steps forward.

Sue helps people work through concerns such as depression, addiction, trauma, sleeping problems, anger and relationship strain. People can expect a straightforward, compassionate listener who focuses on what matters to them. Conversations are guided by the person’s goals and pace.

Sue supports people to find healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

Approaches that shape online counselling

Sue uses approaches that aim to make online therapy practical and personal. Client-Centred Therapy means the conversation centres on the person’s own goals and experiences, with the counsellor offering a listening, accepting presence. This is helpful for people who need space to talk through feelings and regain confidence.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current emotions and behaviour. It can be useful for issues like intimacy, abandonment feelings and communication problems. Solution-Focused Therapy targets short-term, practical changes by identifying small steps that lead to clear improvements in daily life.

Finding the right approach is something Sue works on with each person. She will listen to your needs, try different techniques and agree together what feels most helpful. That collaborative process means therapy is tailored to your goals rather than fixed from the start.

Online sessions offer flexibility and choice. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, day-to-day support or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit counselling around work, caring responsibilities or travel.
