About Sue
Sue Lynes uses a client-centred approach as the starting point for her work. She keeps sessions simple and focused so people can talk about what matters most. Sue brings warmth and patience and helps people find their own solutions.
Sue holds a BACP accreditation, which she uses alongside person-centred ideas to guide conversations. She encourages practical steps that build confidence and shift unhelpful patterns. Sessions aim to be down-to-earth and manageable for busy lives.
Background and approach
Her background includes voluntary roles supporting people affected by sexual and domestic abuse. That experience gave her direct insight into trauma, safety needs, and how long recovery can take. She also volunteers with a neonatal bereavement charity and has supported parents through loss.
Those roles shaped her focus on grief, trauma and relationship issues. She also works with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and anger. Other areas she addresses include attachment, codependency, communication problems and separation or divorce concerns.
Sue has six years of counselling experience in independent practice and voluntary settings. She offers sessions in English and accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. She adapts the pace and style to each person’s needs and respects where they are in their journey.

Approaches Sue lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also uses solution-focused techniques that look for practical steps and small shifts. This can be useful for stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and everyday problems where short-term goals are helpful.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor discusses goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapts the methods to suit each person. This collaborative planning helps shape a clear way forward.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are close to a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be useful when video is not possible, live chat is good for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and travel commitments, and they help people access support from different locations.
