About Susan
Susan "Sue" Small is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression and supports those coping with grief, major life changes and relationship difficulties.
Sue is neuro-affirming and has experience supporting people with ADHD, ADD and autism. She believes clients know their own story and works alongside them as they take steps towards change. Her BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) is shown as a professional membership.
In sessions she aims to listen carefully and respond to what matters most to the person in front of her. That might mean talking through difficult feelings, looking at unhelpful patterns or testing small changes to see what helps. The room is practical and down-to-earth rather than full of clinical jargon.
She uses Client-Centred ways of working to make space for a person's own priorities. Solution-Focused ideas help when someone wants short-term, goal-oriented work. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events continue to cause distress and a clearer focus on those experiences is needed.
Sue also supports people with issues such as self-esteem, addictions, eating concerns, parenting strain, career uncertainty and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. She tries to keep sessions straightforward and focused on what the person wants to change next.
How Sue uses client-centred and trauma-focused work online
Sue draws on Client-Centred Therapy to place the person's experience at the heart of each session. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people make choices that feel right for them. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set small, practical goals and track progress over a few sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps when past events are still causing strong reactions and a clearer focus on those memories is needed.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sue will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped in the past. That makes it easier to agree on a plan that fits the person's needs, whether the emphasis is on short-term problem solving or deeper trauma work.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it simpler to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also support work that uses talking, planning small changes, and processing difficult memories without requiring extra time away from daily responsibilities.
