Sue Hunter, BACP, NCPS

Sue Hunter offers person-centred counselling for people feeling overwhelmed, stuck or unsure of their next steps. She aims to listen without judgement and help clients find greater clarity and self-acceptance. Her way of working is warm and straightforward, with an emphasis on being genuine and honest in the room.

Sue uses a person-centred base and draws on several approaches to tailor sessions. She helps people notice how they relate to themselves and others, and to recognise the choices they do have. That often leads to more self-awareness and clearer decision making.

She has 12 years of practice and is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapists, BACP, and a Senior Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society, NCPS. Sue also trains and works with complementary methods that some clients find helpful alongside talking therapy.

Alongside counselling she offers Bach flower consultations and bespoke remedies when this is requested. Sue is a Registered Bach Practitioner (BFRP) and can arrange to post a personalised remedy for an additional cost. She also practises Emotional Freedom Technique, sometimes called tapping, which can be offered as a focused session or blended into counselling.

Sue works from a holistic, integrative perspective and aims to support people through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, trauma, depression and life transitions. She encourages clients to draw on their own resources and to take manageable steps toward change.

How her approaches translate to online work

Sue draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in her practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts while committing to actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress and making life changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to without judgement so people feel understood and can access their own answers; this supports self-esteem and emotional processing.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Clients can give feedback and adapt the focus as therapy progresses so it better fits their needs.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find remote work helpful because it can fit more easily into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins between other commitments. Online sessions can also suit quieter conversations or meetings where being on camera is not required, depending on the chosen format. Registered or accredited professionals will discuss practical arrangements and help match the approach to the way you prefer to meet.
