Hello, I'm Sue, a BACP registered Humanistic counsellor working with individual adults aged 20 and above. I work online, by phone, and In person.

Many people face difficulties in life that leave them feeling they no longer enjoy the things they used to love. You might be feeling as though you have lost direction; stuck in a repeating pattern with no idea how to break free, not being very kind to yourself, reeling from a loss, or affected by anxiety or depression and want support to explore your thoughts and feelings? Perhaps you feel it is time to gain some awareness as to why you react the way that you do? Are you looking for a new perspective that will allow for change? Together we can develop your ability to view yourself with curiosity and not judgment so that you can grow in self-compassion; and discover the root causes of your concerns.

I offer a respectful and reflective space where I will listen with focus and empathy as you share your story. Through having this consistent support you can be given tools to help you get on top of difficulties.

Timing is everything in therapy; if you are ready to make a change I offer a free 30-minute introductory chat to see if I am the right counsellor for you.

I tailor my approach to bring the greatest benefit to you. There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to counselling, as the best therapy for you will always be as unique as you. I aim to build trust with you through my belief that therapy is a dialogue so we will always work at a pace you feel comfortable with.

Our therapy space is your time to meet regularly with a counsellor trained in listening with sensitivity and empathy to support the exploration of emotions that can hold you ‘hostage’ if left unexpressed; and who also detects patterns of behaviour by being able to step back and look at the whole of the content you bring. Learning to view yourself with curiosity and not judgement, helps to increase self-compassion and improve the relationship you have with yourself and others.

We can work together to:

• Explore your life experiences, and how they might have affected how you relate to the people in your life

• Discover how ways of being in the past might no longer be serving you; find new ways you can support yourself that are healthier ways to cope

• Look at the meaning in your life and what choices you can make to bring yourself to living closer in line with your values

• What might be keeping you 'stuck', and find new perspectives that will allow for change

Let's find the right questions for you leading answers that connect to the strength already inside yourself. 

Our first session is our opportunity to see if we feel we can work well together. I will invite you to share what brought you to therapy and we can discuss what your therapeutic goals are. If you feel supported, listened to, and at ease with me, we can discuss if you would like to meet again. The first session is 50 minutes and charged at the normal rate.

Qualifications:
