About Sue

Sue Hunter is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and life changes. She speaks plainly and listens without judgement, helping people find clearer thinking and more control over difficult feelings. Her approach aims to make sessions feel safe and straightforward for someone unsure where to start.

Sue works in a person-centred way, which means she trusts each person’s own ability to find answers.

Background and approach

She uses that core approach alongside other methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to suit different needs. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on practical steps to feel better day to day. Her practice also includes attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships and past hurts affect present life.

For people affected by trauma and abuse or by ongoing stress, this can help make sense of emotional reactions and patterns. The aim is greater self-awareness and steadier responses to triggers. Sue has twelve years of experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, BACP, and a Senior Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society, NCPS.

She can discuss how therapy and complementary approaches might work together to support wellbeing. Alongside talking therapy, Sue offers optional consultations in Bach flower remedies and Emotional Freedom Technique, sometimes called tapping. These can be combined with counselling or arranged separately, depending on what the person prefers.

Ways of working Sue names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches you can use online

Sue draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then act in line with their values. ACT focuses on what matters to the person and on taking small, meaningful steps despite uncomfortable feelings.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT offers clear, practical exercises that can reduce anxiety, improve sleep and change repetitive responses to stress.

Attachment-based ideas are used to understand how past relationships shape current reactions and communication. This can be helpful for people who want clearer patterns around trust, closeness and emotional responses after difficult experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a shared task. Sue will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and personality, and she adapts the plan as progress is made. The therapeutic relationship and ongoing discussion guide how techniques are blended.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family or health needs.
