About Su

Su Dunn works on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and coping with life changes using evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has 18 years of professional experience.

Su adapts sessions to suit each person’s needs and focuses on practical ways to manage difficult feelings. She talks through what is happening now, looks at patterns that repeat, and helps people develop ways to cope day to day. Sessions are straightforward and aim to give clear steps to try between meetings.

Her background includes long-term practice with adults facing loss, relationship change and periods of isolation. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, attachment issues, midlife concerns and questions about life purpose. Work often covers emotional responses after separation and the particular pressures women may face.

Su brings steady experience working with trauma and abuse, using methods that help people feel more able to manage memories and reactions. She uses approaches that focus on understanding emotions, learning new skills and building stronger ways of relating to oneself and others.

People who book a first session can expect a calm, practical discussion about what they want to achieve and how to get there. She asks about recent changes, current coping, and what help would make daily life easier, then agrees next steps with each person.

How Su uses evidence-based methods online

Su works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding emotions and changing unhelpful patterns. One approach addresses emotional processing and helps people manage strong reactions after trauma or abuse by breaking problems into manageable steps. Another approach teaches practical skills for day-to-day coping, such as relaxation, problem-solving and managing worry to reduce anxiety and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor discusses goals and preferences in the first sessions and then agrees which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and may change as needs evolve.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to continue regular meetings during life changes, while the practical arrangements for each session are agreed directly with the counsellor.
