About Sue
Sue Aylott is a counsellor who aims to help people who are struggling with low mood, anxiety, stress and relationship difficulties. She works with clients who are facing grief, addiction, parenting strain and other life changes. Sue uses a calm, respectful manner and encourages people to draw on their own strengths to move forward.
Sue believes the client is the expert in their story and that therapy is a collaborative process.
Background and approach
She offers a listening space where people can name what feels hard and try out different ways of coping. Conversations are practical and grounded, and she supports people to take realistic steps toward change. With ten years' experience and BACP registration, Sue brings steady experience to common problems such as depression, trauma and intimacy-related issues.
Her background includes work around family dynamics, attachment concerns, and caregiver stress. This experience informs how she tailors sessions to each person. Sue draws on several therapeutic ways of working to match what each person needs.
She combines ideas that focus on thoughts and behaviours with approaches that explore relational patterns and present experience. Mindfulness techniques are used where helpful for stress and grounding. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to suit their timetable. Sue aims to make each meeting clear, practical and paced to the client’s needs.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sue will discuss your goals and preferences, and then suggest ways of working that match your needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video is useful for a fuller face-to-face style, phone can fit into a short break, and text or live chat can work for check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to attend from different locations and to fit therapy around work, parenting and daily life.
