Sue Hunter, BACP, NCPS

Sue Hunter is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people managing stress, anxiety, grief and complex life changes. She offers a listening space where people can talk without judgement and start to make sense of what they are feeling. Her approach suits those who want to increase self-awareness and take clearer steps forward in day-to-day life.

Sue uses person-centred counselling at the heart of her work. That means she treats people as the experts on their own lives and focuses on understanding each person’s experience. Sessions aim to create more self-acceptance and to help people make choices that feel right for them.

Alongside person-centred work she brings together techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. These approaches are used to notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and to open up new ways of relating to oneself and others. She also offers Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people live by their values when life feels difficult.

Sue has 12 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 also practises some holistic methods, such as Bach flower remedies and Emotional Freedom Technique, which can be used alongside counselling if wanted.

People looking for help with illness-related stress, chronic pain, caregiving pressures or changes in mood may find this combination helpful. To confirm practical session options and the best fit, clients are asked to check current details before booking.

How Sue’s approaches translate to online therapy

Sue draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client‑Centred Therapy alongside cognitive work to support emotional coping. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and stay connected to what matters to them, which can be useful for chronic health challenges and life transitions. Client‑centred therapy focuses on being heard and understood, encouraging self‑acceptance and personal insight in everyday decisions. Cognitive behavioural techniques help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding to stress and mood changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Sue will discuss goals and preferences with each person and try different methods to find what helps most. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the current session options before booking as these are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in appointments when needed. They can also be useful when someone needs to work around medical appointments or rest periods. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt interventions such as values work, cognitive exercises and emotionally focused tasks to an online setting so therapy remains practical and goal oriented.
