With four years of direct experience, Sue focuses on practical skills and emotional understanding to help clients develop more balanced thinking and improved coping strategies.

Sue is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists, and the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP), the specialist association for cognitive and behavioural practitioners.

Sue believes many unhelpful beliefs are learned through repetition, and she works collaboratively to challenge those patterns, build new, more helpful habits of thinking, and strengthen resilience. Her goal is to equip people with the skills and tools they need to navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and independence.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Sue uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. CBT is a practical, structured approach often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties because it focuses on developing new coping strategies and problem-solving skills.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy, which encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of difficult emotions. Mindfulness techniques can help reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation for those dealing with persistent worry, low mood, or trauma-related symptoms.
Sue approaches decisions about treatment collaboratively, working with clients to find the best fit for their needs, goals, and preferences. Registered professionals and therapists often blend methods, and Sue will explain options and adapt techniques as the working relationship develops.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, family, and other commitments. For many people this accessibility supports consistent engagement with therapy and helps maintain progress between sessions.
