Background and approach

Conversations are practical and grounded in what matters to the client right now. Her approach draws on client-centred and mindfulness techniques. That means the relationship and the person’s present experience shape the work, with simple mindfulness practices introduced when helpful.

Techniques are chosen to fit what each person says they need. Sessions can cover anger, parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related difficulties and problems such as abandonment or attachment worries. Sue also helps with communication breakdowns, infidelity, divorce and midlife questions when these come up in therapy.

People are invited to take the pace that suits them. The aim is to build trust, increase choice and help people feel more able to manage day-to-day life. The first step is a short match and scheduling to find a good time to begin.

How Sue’s approaches work online

Sue draws primarily on client-centred and mindfulness approaches. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and letting the client set the pace and topics. It helps when someone needs a steady, supportive space to talk through anxiety, grief or relationship worries.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple exercises to bring attention into the present moment. These practices can help reduce rumination, manage stress and build steadying habits that support daily coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sue will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Over the first sessions she will check in and adapt the style to match what is helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for a full conversational session, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel while keeping continuity of care.
