Hello there. I’m Sue.

Thank you for visiting my website.

I’m from and live in the Preston area in the North-West of England.

I have been practicing as a trained counsellor and psychotherapist since 2005 working with adults, children, and young people in various settings and in private practice. My background is in experiential Person-Centred Therapy, Hakomi (mindfulness-based somatic psychotherapy), Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), Somatic IFS, and I have an MA in Dance and Somatic Well-being. In my early adulthood I studied art and design and have also studied shamanic practices.

All of these experiences, theories, my personal life, background and cultural legacies, inform who I am, my values, beliefs and what I feel called to offer.

WHAT I OFFER

CREATIVITY

I believe in the value of self-expression, creativity, music, movement.
SELF-ENERGY

I trust in the healing potential of Self-energy and transpersonal experience.
COMPASSION

I have faith in the power of compassionate deep listening and attuned relationship.

At this point in history, with many challenges presented in the world, I’m interested in how we can support one another, and be supported, to grow, heal, feel joy, connection, clarity and a sense of the magical and of wonder.

I’m curious about how we can bring these qualities into our lives, trusting that these ways of being will ripple out to wider community, perhaps helping to create a more compassionate and joyful world.

I am called to share what I can of what I find healing, to guide and support spaces in which we can discover valuable and hidden aspects of ourselves; find lost inner stories; reclaim stolen creativity and expression; connect with our innate ability to attune to one another with sensitivity and respect; encounter elements of life that surprise and delight us.

This website is a place to share what I’m offering, in case this is of interest to you, and to share little snippets that might be helpful or meaningful in some way to you.
