About Su

Su Dunn is a counsellor with 18 years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and major life changes. She treats people with respect, sensitivity and compassion.

Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, with clear steps and gentle pacing.

Background and approach

The aim is to help people feel steadier and more able to cope day to day. In practice she works with underlying attachment concerns and the strong emotions that come with caregiving, separation and loneliness. She also helps with questions about life purpose, self-love and midlife transitions.

Work often involves looking at patterns that keep causing distress and trying out new ways of relating to oneself and others. Su draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, loss and ongoing anxiety. She helps people make sense of difficult experiences and build practical skills to manage distress.

Her approach is collaborative and grounded in what is useful for the person in front of her. If someone is ready to start, Su asks them to describe their main concerns and goals so sessions can be tailored. The focus is on clear, manageable steps that fit a person’s life and pace.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Su lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Evidence-based approaches for online trauma and life transition work

Su draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding and processing difficult experiences. One approach helps people make sense of how past events affect current feelings and relationships, teaching ways to notice triggers and respond differently. Another approach emphasises building practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing strategies, grounding exercises and manageable behavioural experiments to test new ways of coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust methods as progress is made, so the plan remains practical and person-centred.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video sessions let people use visual cues and fuller conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins or flexible contact during a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and keep continuity of care when schedules change.
