About Sue
Sue Cassidy supports people facing relationship strain, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, stress and major life changes. She helps with parenting concerns, addictions, intimacy and self-esteem issues. Sue also works with people affected by trauma, abuse, eating difficulties, bipolar disorder and ADHD.
She offers a steady, non-judgemental space where someone can talk things through and start to make small changes. Sue has six years' experience working in bereavement services and mental health settings.
How Sue works
She has provided counselling for Cruse and for Mind, and has carried out counselling work in workplace settings and for the NHS. That range of roles means she is familiar with the pressures people bring in from home and work. Her style is warm and accepting.
She aims to build a trusting relationship so clients feel heard. Sue does not direct people what to do; she helps them discover the options that fit their own life and values. Practically, Sue uses approaches that focus on the person in front of her, on meaning, and on finding workable solutions.
Sessions are conversational and goal-focused when needed. The emphasis is on clear steps a person can try between meetings. Sue practises in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP.
Sessions are delivered in English and are offered by subscription with the option to cancel at any time. To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled to suit the person seeking help.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Sue draws on client-centred work that puts the person's experience at the heart of the conversation. This approach focuses on listening, acceptance and helping people find answers that fit their own values and life. It is useful for distress linked to relationships, loss and self-esteem.She also uses solution-focused techniques which concentrate on practical steps and measurable goals. These methods aim to identify small changes a person can try between sessions to ease anxiety, stress or relationship problems. Solution-focused work tends to suit people who want short-term, actionable ideas.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Sue works collaboratively to decide whether the conversation should be more exploratory or more goal-driven. She adapts the style to match a person's needs, goals and preferences rather than using a fixed method.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which gives flexibility for different schedules. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feeling and fuller communication, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins or a way to reflect between sessions. These formats make it easier to attend therapy from different places and at times that suit the person's life.
