Approaches Sue lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Client-centred and mindfulness work online
Sue uses a client-centred approach which means she focuses on your experience and what matters to you. This style is about being heard, naming feelings and finding ways forward that suit the person rather than following a fixed script.She also draws on mindfulness therapy to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept away by them. Mindfulness can be useful for managing stress, anxiety, sleep problems and emotional reactivity.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Sue will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and may change as you progress.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the options available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when helpful. Many people find talking from their usual environment helps them practise skills between sessions, and mindfulness exercises can be practised between meetings to build coping skills.
