About Sue

Sue Aylott is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who offers a supportive space for people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain and codependency. She works with clients who are coping with grief, trauma, depression, addiction and intimacy-related worries. Sue believes people already hold strengths they can use to change things that feel stuck or painful.

She uses straightforward, respectful conversations to help clients make sense of their experience. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her and on practical steps they can try between meetings. The approach is gentle but focused, with attention to attachment patterns and unhelpful thinking that keep problems repeating.

Sue draws on a mix of methods including attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural approaches. Mindfulness techniques and relational tools from Imago relationship work also feature when helpful. These are used to improve emotional awareness, communication and day-to-day coping.

With ten years of experience and BACP registration, she aims to build a steady working relationship. People are invited to set the pace and bring whatever feels relevant to them. The emphasis is on practical, manageable changes rather than quick fixes.

To begin, clients follow the site process to match with Sue and arrange sessions according to her schedule. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and session cost varies with location and the therapist's availability.

How Sue’s approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-based work focuses on how early connections influence present relationships. It helps people understand patterns that affect closeness, trust and reactions to stress. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client’s pace and priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical steps to test and change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Sue will talk through options and help the client pick methods that suit their goals and comfort level. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as this biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel, and they can reduce time spent commuting. They also allow for shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, if that suits the client’s needs. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques like mindfulness exercises, CBT worksheets and attachment-based conversations to an online setting to support ongoing change.
