About Sue
Sue Aylott is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and parenting-related concerns. She works with issues around relationships, intimacy, grief and addictions. Sue also helps with self-esteem, career worries and coping with life changes.
She sees clients who are facing trauma, abuse and compassion fatigue, and she offers care for people managing attachment or abandonment difficulties. Her practice covers a wide range of additional concerns including body image, chronic pain or illness, codependency and communication problems.
Background and approach
Sue draws on several therapeutic approaches to match each person's needs. She uses client-centred work to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where clients lead the pace and focus. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical ways to change them.
Attachment-based ideas help when past relationships affect current ones, and mindfulness techniques teach simple ways to stay present and reduce overwhelm. Sue integrates these approaches into conversations so people can try what fits best for them. She has ten years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions are offered in English and through online formats, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.

How Sue uses different approaches online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect feelings and trust now. It can help when past hurt affects current connections and parenting concerns. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. This approach helps people who need a calm, respectful space to talk and make sense of things. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sue will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. They may try a few ways of working and adjust what they do as therapy progresses. Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for a face-to-face feel when schedules allow. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who find typing easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit conversations into work, childcare or daily life while keeping therapy consistent and focused.Questions people ask about Sue
