Sue Aylott

Sue Aylott is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people manage anger and related struggles. She works with adults experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addictions and parenting strains. Sue aims to help people find practical ways to feel steadier and more in control of day-to-day life.

Sue believes people are the experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. She listens for patterns that cause repeated upset and helps clients try small changes to break those patterns.

Her background includes work over ten years in roles that supported people with trauma, attachment concerns and life transitions. She uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs rather than one fixed method. That means sometimes focusing on thoughts and behaviours, and sometimes working on relationships and emotional patterns.

Sue draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ways of working, alongside mindfulness practices. These approaches are used to address issues such as anger, self-esteem, communication problems and coping with change.

People who meet Sue can expect straightforward, down-to-earth conversations. She helps clients set realistic steps and reviews progress together. To begin, readers should use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule sessions.

How Sue’s approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness or repeated conflict to notice those patterns and try different ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor, offering non-judgemental listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and practice practical alternatives to reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sue will collaborate with each person to decide which of these ways of working fits their needs, goals and preferences. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and checking in regularly about how the work is going.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around everyday life, avoiding travel time and allowing brief check-ins when needed. The specific session formats available with Sue should be confirmed before booking, so clients know how they will meet. Many people find online work helps them maintain continuity of care while juggling work, family and other commitments.
