About Sue
Sue Perks is a counsellor with over 10 years of experience. She offers a warm, empathic presence and aims to make it easier for people to talk through difficult feelings and situations. Sue uses a client-led way of working, so sessions move at the speed that feels right for each person.
She focuses on common problems such as stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with grief, trauma and bereavement, relationship and family difficulties, and issues around identity and sexuality. Other areas of attention include self-esteem, anger, career worries and compassion fatigue.
Sue draws on Client-Centred Therapy alongside mindfulness-based ideas. That means she listens first and follows the client’s concerns, then brings in straightforward practices that help with calming, noticing thoughts, and staying present. The aim is to find what works for each person rather than follow a fixed script.
Sessions are carried out in a calm, non-judgemental manner. Sue emphasises an open and trusting therapeutic relationship as the place where change can begin. She encourages people to set the pace and to explore practical ways to feel steadier day to day.
Taking the first step can feel daunting. Sue offers support for people who want to work towards clearer goals, better coping, and a more fulfilling sense of direction in life.
How client-led and mindfulness approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, follows what matters to you, and reflects it back so you feel understood. This approach is helpful for building trust, exploring identity or relationship concerns, and deciding what to change.Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple exercises in noticing thoughts and bodily sensations. These practices can support anxiety, stress and low mood by helping people develop calmer responses in everyday moments. Exercises are short and practical, so they can fit into a busy day.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together you will decide which ideas to try. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Many people find online sessions help them fit therapy into work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Others like having a consistent weekly time that slots into their routine. Talk with the counsellor about what will suit your schedule and how sessions can be arranged to meet your needs.
