About Sue
Sue works with people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, depression, mood disorders and issues around eating and body image. She also supports those dealing with grief, career pressure, relationship strain and the knock-on effects of chronic illness or caregiver stress. Sue can help people who are questioning their identity or sexuality, and those coping with anger, isolation or a sense of purposelessness.
Her main ways of working are client-centred conversations, cognitive behavioural techniques and motivational interviewing. That means sessions focus on what matters to the person, look at patterns of thinking and behaviour, and build motivation for change. Sessions are practical and aimed at small, manageable steps rather than big, sudden shifts.
Sue is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English for local and international clients. Therapy is offered by video, phone, live chat or messaging to fit different needs.
To start, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions based on the therapist's schedule. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Practical approaches for online therapy and change
Sue uses client-centred work that puts the person's concerns and goals at the centre of each session. This approach emphasises listening and understanding, so people set the pace and choose what to focus on in each meeting.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviours, which can reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful coping like substance use.
Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about taking the next step, for example with addictions or building new habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then agree on methods to try together. That collaborative choice can be revisited as therapy progresses.
Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit into busy weeks. Video sessions let people use visual cues and fuller conversation. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or for simple check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection or when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different places and at different times.
