About Sue
Sue Hunter offers person-centred counselling for people facing difficult life moments. She aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly about stress, grief, anxiety, relationship strain and other struggles. Sue emphasises honesty and understanding in the therapeutic relationship to help people feel heard and accepted.
She draws on somatic ideas alongside person-centred work to help clients notice how the body holds feelings. This can make emotional patterns easier to understand and shift.
Background and approach
Sue also uses cognitive and acceptance-based techniques when they suit the person’s needs. Her practice is informed by a humanistic outlook that trusts each person’s ability to find their own path. Sessions focus on increasing self-awareness and helping people make clearer choices about how they want to live.
Practical steps and reflective listening are used together to build momentum for change. Sue has worked in counselling for 12 years and holds membership with the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, BACP, and is a Senior Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society, NCPS.
She also offers complementary options such as Bach flower consultations and Emotional Freedom Technique sessions alongside counselling when appropriate. People who value a warm, steady presence and a straightforward way of looking at feelings may find her approach helpful. She aims to collaborate with each person to tailor the pace and focus of work to their needs and life context.
How different approaches shape online sessions
Sue uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to small values-based actions. ACT tends to suit people who want practical steps to move forward while accepting difficult emotions.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. This approach can help people understand repeated difficulties in close connections and develop new ways of relating.
Sue blends somatic awareness into these methods by inviting attention to bodily sensations and how they relate to emotions. That can make feelings easier to recognise and work with during an online session.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Sue will work collaboratively to choose methods that match each person’s needs, goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Sue is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options give flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits or caring responsibilities, and they allow therapy to continue from different locations. Sessions can mix formats so practical work and emotional processing fit into everyday life.
