About Sue Hunter

Sue Hunter provides person-centred counselling from her practice in West Cumbria, United Kingdom, offering a compassionate space for people experiencing difficult or challenging periods in their lives. She emphasizes listening without judgment, seeking to understand each person and to respond with honesty and genuineness. Central to her approach is a deep acceptance of the individual, alongside thoughtful support that can both hold and gently challenge the client as they explore their experiences and choices.

Sue draws on the humanistic roots of person-centred counselling, working from a belief that people have inner resources to move toward a more satisfying way of living. She uses an integrative, holistic method that helps clients increase self-awareness and see how they relate to the world around them. That growing understanding supports clients to make their own decisions and take greater control over the direction of their lives.

Her practice combines talking therapy with complementary approaches that some clients find helpful. She is a Registered Bach Practitioner (BFRP) and offers consultations and bespoke Bach flower remedies, which can be used on their own or alongside counselling to support emotional balance. Individual Bach remedies can be prepared and posted to a client at an additional cost. Sue is also a fully trained Emotional Freedom Technique practitioner, offering EFT consultations either as standalone sessions or integrated within counselling appointments - EFT is sometimes known as tapping and is used to address repeated patterns that may limit progress.

Professionally, Sue is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and holds accreditation with NCPS. She aims to tailor support to the stage each person has reached in their healing journey, working to complement wellbeing in the most suitable way possible.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether connecting with a therapist online can truly help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.



A major benefit is flexibility. People can choose the format that suits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and varied schedules.



Licensed professionals and therapists offer these remote options, and if someone feels they would prefer a different fit at any time, they can switch to another therapist. Online therapy can be a practical way to access professional support while maintaining the same goals of growth, insight, and improved wellbeing.
