About Suzie
Suzie Pugh is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, and codependency. She also supports people dealing with eating concerns, low self-esteem, addictions, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting strain and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar. She works in English and accepts international clients, and brings eight years of clinical experience to her practice.
Suzie uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. She aims to make people feel heard and treated with kindness. Conversations are paced to suit each person, and practical tools are offered alongside gentle reflection. The room is intended as a place to untangle patterns and build small, manageable changes.
Her background includes work with a mental health charity where she runs a fortnightly therapeutic support group for people coping with emotional difficulties. She is studying a postgraduate level 7 (Masters level) qualification in attachment-focused psychotherapy, due to finish in June 2026. She also holds BACP membership, which is listed as her professional credential.
In practice she describes an integrative approach, drawing on attachment-based ideas, cognitive-behavioural tools, client-centred listening and mindfulness exercises. This mix is used to tailor each person’s plan according to their needs and goals. Sessions aim to increase clarity, build coping strategies and support longer-term wellbeing.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and Suzie invites people to begin at a pace that suits them. She encourages an honest conversation about what someone hopes to change and what support will help them move forward.
How her approaches fit with online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current ways of connecting. It helps people understand attachment wounds, manage fear of abandonment and build safer ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. It offers structured techniques to reduce anxiety, challenge unhelpful thinking and change behaviours that cause distress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Suzie will listen to your goals and suggest which methods might help most, then adjust the plan as you go. The process is collaborative so you can try different tools and keep what works for you.
If you are considering online therapy, please check the session formats directly when booking because the biography does not list specific options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make participating from different locations possible. Registered or accredited professionals can use the same therapeutic tools online as they do in person, and Suzie adapts attachment and CBT techniques to suit remote sessions.
