Su Dunn
Experienced counsellor offering practical emotional support
About Su
Su Dunn works from an evidence-based outlook to help people through difficult life moments. She brings 18 years of UK practice to conversations about stress, anxiety, grief and depression. Her approach is calm and respectful and aimed at helping people feel steadier and more able to cope.
She focuses on practical support for those coping with major life changes. That includes responses to trauma and abuse, relationship endings and caregiver stress.
Background and approach
She also helps people struggling with isolation, attachment concerns, midlife questions and finding more self-compassion. Her method is to tailor the work to each person. That means setting goals together and choosing ways of working that suit the individual.
Sessions are intended to be straightforward and to build skills for everyday life as well as space to process difficult feelings. Su draws on approaches grounded in research, using techniques that are known to help with anxiety, low mood and trauma responses.
She keeps the focus on what people can do differently between sessions as well as what they talk about in the room. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is shown as BACP. Su offers sessions in English and practises from the United Kingdom.
If someone is ready to begin, she supports them through the first steps of arranging care.

Sessions & fees
Evidence-informed approaches and flexible online sessions
Su uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in practical, accessible ways. One common approach focuses on managing anxiety and low mood through skill-building and gradual changes to unhelpful thinking and behaviour; this helps people reduce worry and regain day-to-day functioning. Another approach addresses trauma and abuse by helping people process difficult memories and learn coping strategies that reduce distress and flashbacks.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs and goals, and together they will choose methods that fit those priorities. This means approaches can change as progress is made and different challenges arise.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well for deeper conversations when visual contact helps, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick reflections, ongoing support and fitting therapeutic work around a busy day. These options aim to make it easier to keep continuity of care across different circumstances and schedules.
