About Suzie
Counsellor Suzie Pugh is a BACP member with eight years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationships, intimacy, eating issues, self‑esteem, addictions, family matters, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career issues, bipolar, depression, coping with life changes and ADHD.
Suzie keeps sessions focused on what the client wants to talk about. She uses a mix of approaches so the conversation can shift between exploring how attachment affects relationships and using practical techniques when needed. She aims to listen without judgement and to help clients notice patterns that cause difficulty.
Her background includes substantial client contact and work with a mental health charity, where she facilitates a fortnightly therapeutic support group. She is studying a Post‑Grad Level 7 (Masters level) qualification in attachment‑focused psychotherapy, due to complete in June 2026.
In session she commonly uses attachment‑based ideas, client‑centred ways of working, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness exercises. That combination supports people who want to understand early relationship patterns, manage anxiety or change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Suzie supports adults who want to improve relationships, manage strong emotions, or address patterns such as codependency, avoidance, or problems with communication. She works in the United Kingdom and offers counselling in English. Before booking, check the current session options and practical details via the service buttons.
How her approaches are used in online counselling
Attachment‑based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It helps when worries centre on trust, abandonment or difficulty forming close connections.Client‑centred work puts the client's priorities first and relies on listening and reflection. It supports people who want time to talk things through at their own pace and to make sense of feelings and choices.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, obsessive thinking and some eating‑related patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to agree what to try first and to review what helps. Clients and therapist decide together whether to use more practical techniques or deeper attachment work as therapy progresses.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online counselling can make fitting sessions into a busy week easier, for example by reducing travel time or allowing a shorter check‑in during a work break. It can also mean sessions do not require being on camera if that helps you engage. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use different formats, and Suzie will confirm what she offers when you arrange your first session.
