Sue Hutchinson helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those dealing with trauma, eating or sleeping difficulties, anger, self-harm and major life changes. Sue works with people who identify as LGBT and individuals struggling with parenting, career pressures or family-related concerns.

Sue brings 23 years of experience as a BACP counsellor. She keeps sessions respectful and warm. Conversations are grounded and straightforward.

Background and approach

The aim is to make small, practical changes that feel manageable. Sue follows a client-centred approach that centres each person’s own goals and experience. She uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them.

When helpful, she offers creative options to find new ways of seeing a problem. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. People can expect a calm, patient listener who asks clear questions and offers practical steps between sessions.

Work can range from short-term support to longer-term exploration depending on needs. Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and she is used to working with a wide variety of life difficulties. Sue aims to build a trusting working relationship so people feel able to try things that might feel uncomfortable at first.

Approaches that suit online therapy

Sue uses client-centred work which means sessions focus on the person’s own priorities and experience. This approach helps people who need a listening space to make sense of strong feelings, relationship worries or life changes.

She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting overwhelmed. Mindfulness practice can be useful for anxiety, stress and sleep problems because it builds skills for calming and returning attention to the present.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sue will discuss goals, try out ideas and agree what feels most helpful. The process is collaborative so methods are shaped by what a person needs and prefers rather than being fixed in advance.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls let people keep visual contact and read non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be quicker or easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins or written reflection when speaking feels difficult. These options make fitting therapy around work, family life and travel simpler for many people.
