Sue takes a warm, respectful and person-centred approach.

Background and approach
She invites clients to talk about what matters to them and to set the pace for how therapy proceeds. Alongside her client-centred style Sue uses mindfulness techniques to help people manage overwhelming thoughts and intense feelings. Mindfulness practices are offered in simple, practical ways to help calm the mind and build coping skills for daily life.
Sue is a BACP counsellor. That means she works within recognised professional standards in the United Kingdom and draws on many years of varied experience. Therapy may include talking, reflecting and sometimes creative options if someone wants a different way to understand things.
Sessions focus on practical steps people can take, and on noticing small changes that add up over time. People start by sharing their current concerns and goals. From there Sue helps them try different ways of responding to stress and anxiety, and to find new possibilities for moving forward.
Practical approaches and online therapy options
Sue uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on each individual's experience and priorities. This approach involves listening closely, helping people name their concerns and supporting them to find their own solutions. It is well suited to worries about anxiety, relationships and life changes.She also offers mindfulness therapy which brings simple, practical exercises to help manage racing thoughts and strong emotions. Mindfulness can help people develop a steadier response to stress and support better sleep and mood regulation.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Sue helps clients explore what feels most helpful, adapts techniques to their goals and checks in regularly to see what is working. Together they shape a plan that matches needs and preferences rather than using a fixed method.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins and text messaging works well for people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments and make it easier to maintain continuity of care.
