Background and approach

When past distress is affecting day-to-day life she can use eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing as part of trauma work. Sessions begin with a clear look at what a person wants to change. Sulette then co‑creates a simple plan and practical steps.

That might include short experiments between sessions, breathing or grounding strategies, or work on values and life direction. The focus is on small, steady changes clients can use right away. She brings sensitivity to issues such as grief, relationship difficulties, parenting strains, identity questions, eating and sleeping concerns, and career stress.

Sulette also supports people facing adoption, immigration or fertility questions, and those dealing with guilt, shame or feelings of emptiness. People can expect straightforward talk, respectful curiosity and tailored tools rather than clinical jargon. She explains NCPS when relevant and draws on her years of practice to adapt approaches to each person’s situation.

How different approaches work online

Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people set goals that matter to them. This approach is useful for stress, life transitions and questions of purpose.

Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying out new behaviours. It often includes short exercises and structured tasks between sessions to reduce anxiety and lift mood.

Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing offers a way to process distressing memories so they feel less disruptive in daily life. It is used when past trauma affects current functioning and can be combined with other approaches.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options with each person and adjust methods to fit their goals, needs and preferences rather than imposing a single method.

Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is helpful for conversations that benefit from face-to-face contact. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need to fit sessions around busy days. These options make it easier to attend regularly and to try different ways of working.
