About Sue
Sue Lynes is a counsellor who uses person-centred and attachment-based ways of working. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about stress, loss, relationship worries, addiction and other concerns. Sue encourages clients to find their own answers while offering practical support and clarity.
Sue holds an Advanced Diploma Level 5 in Person-Centred Counselling, and she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Background and approach
She brings six years of experience from independent practice and voluntary roles. That mix of work has shaped a down-to-earth approach that focuses on what helps in everyday life. Her background includes volunteering with a charity supporting people affected by sexual and domestic abuse and working with a neonatal bereavement charity.
These roles have informed her understanding of trauma, grief and loss. They also contribute to how she listens and responds when people describe painful events. In sessions Sue typically uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect current ones.
She also uses client-centred listening to help people feel heard, and solution-focused steps to set practical goals. The result is a combination of steady listening and short-term, doable actions. Sue works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, parenting strain, sleeping problems, anger and drug or alcohol issues.
She supports people dealing with separation, communication problems, codependency and ageing-related worries. Sessions are delivered in English and international clients are accepted.

How Sue works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sue will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt the methods to fit those needs. That collaborative step helps shape short-term aims and practical next steps that can be reviewed over time.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time and allowing sessions between other commitments. It can also support quieter check-ins when someone prefers not to use video, or shorter sessions to focus on a specific problem. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking.
