About Sue
Sue Perks is a counsellor with ten years of practice supporting people through difficult moments. She describes herself as warm and empathic and aims to offer a calm space where clients can talk through worries and start to make changes. Sue holds NCPS as a credential and works from the United Kingdom.
She helps people with common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression. Sue also supports those dealing with relationship strains, grief, anger and the fallout of trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
She offers help around identity and sexuality, autism spectrum concerns and self-esteem struggles. Sue uses a client-led style. That means she follows the person’s pace and focuses on what matters most to them.
Sessions begin by listening closely to what the client wants and then finding practical ways forward together. Her practice draws on Client-Centred and Mindfulness approaches, mixed with other ideas when useful. This flexible way of working lets her adapt to different needs rather than sticking to one method.
People often come for help with life changes, parenting pressures, career questions or feelings of isolation and emptiness. Sue aims to build a trusting relationship that makes it easier to try new ways of coping and to notice gradual shifts in day-to-day life. Taking the first step can feel hard.
Sue invites prospective clients to consider whether a gentle, steady approach fits their needs and to start with a short matching questionnaire to see if they want to proceed.

How Sue’s approaches work for online therapy
Sue uses Client-Centred Therapy, which centres the session on the person’s own concerns and pace. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the client make sense of their feelings. This approach suits people who want space to talk and be heard before trying new coping strategies.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help with stress, anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness involves simple attention practices and grounding techniques that teach how to notice thoughts and sensations without being swept away by them. These tools can be especially helpful when emotions feel overwhelming.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work and Sue treats it as collaborative. She will discuss options and try methods that match the client’s goals and preferences. If something does not fit, adjustments are made together until a better way is found.
Online therapy with Sue is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit lower bandwidth or quick check-ins, while text options can fit into a busy day or allow reflection between messages. These formats make it easier to access regular support from different locations and at varied times, helping clients keep therapy consistent alongside daily responsibilities.
