About Sue
Sue Hunter offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people facing stress, anxiety, grief or other life challenges. She introduces herself simply and listens closely so people can talk through what matters most. Sue aims to help people feel understood and more able to make choices that suit their own lives.
Sue uses a person-centred, or client-centred, approach that trusts each person’s ability to find their own direction. Sessions focus on understanding how someone experiences themselves and relates to the world. This often increases self-awareness and helps people take steps that feel right for them.
She also draws on a range of therapeutic methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when these fit a person’s needs. Sue works in an integrative, holistic way and tailors sessions to what the individual prefers and finds helpful.
Sue is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, BACP, and a Senior Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society, NCPS. She has 12 years of experience offering counselling in West Cumbria and across the United Kingdom.
Alongside talking therapy, Sue offers consultations in Bach flower remedies and Emotional Freedom Technique, also called tapping. These can be used on their own or combined with counselling, depending on what the person and therapist agree will support their wellbeing.
People who want to begin are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions that fit their schedule.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping a person find their own answers. Online sessions using this approach still centre on being heard and understood and on building the person's own decision-making skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to actions that match their values; online ACT can support goals like reducing avoidance and increasing flexible coping. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationships affect current patterns, and online conversations can be used to gently map those patterns and try new ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit the person's needs and preferences. That choice can change over time as goals shift and progress is reviewed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy day, for example by cutting travel time, allowing a shorter check-in between commitments, or enabling quieter surroundings that suit focus. Online work can also make it easier to combine talking therapy with techniques such as tapping or discussions about holistic remedies, depending on what the therapist and client agree will be most helpful.
