Hello I'm Sue.
I am a former health professional and integrative psychotherapist meaning a combination of all counselling approaches can be used.
With a client led holistic approach to counselling I have an understanding of the importance of nurturing physical mental emotional and social wellbeing. I am trained in holistic therapies and clinical hypnotherapy.I am an accredited member of The National Counselling Society and The National Hypnotherapy Society. I have experience of mental health needs working within GP practice in primary care and as a bereavement volunteer counsellor for Cruse bereavement care organisation.
I am now working in private practice, based in Shotley Bridge Consett and Newcastle.
