Suzie Pugh, BACP

Suzie Pugh BACP offers support for people facing midlife change, anxiety, relationship and intimacy difficulties, low self-esteem, and life transitions. She works with issues such as eating concerns, addictions, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting stress, anger, career questions, bipolar and depression, and attention difficulties. Suzie provides a calm, attentive presence for people who need to make sense of difficult feelings or decisions.

Suzie draws on an integrative approach that puts the person at the centre of sessions. She uses client-centred listening alongside cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. Attachment-focused ideas are used to look at how early relationships influence present-day reactions.

Sessions are paced around what each person needs. Suzie aims to create time to talk, reflect and try practical tools. She also offers mindfulness-based ideas to support grounding and stress regulation during challenging moments.

Over eight years Suzie has worked with a broad range of concerns and has logged substantial client contact. She also facilitates a fortnightly therapeutic support group for people with mental health challenges at a local charity. Her membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy is listed as BACP.

Suzie is completing a Postgraduate Level 7 qualification in attachment-focused psychotherapy, due to finish in June 2026. She supports international clients and runs sessions in English. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Attachment-focused work looks at early relationship patterns and how they show up in current connections. It helps people make sense of why they react a certain way in close relationships and to build different ways of relating.

Client-centred therapy places your experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist offers non-judgemental listening and mirrors back what is said so you can find your own solutions and pace change in a way that feels manageable.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps you spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and try practical experiments to change them. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and to manage compulsive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Suzie will work with you to identify which methods suit your goals and preferences. Together you can try different ideas and adjust the plan as new needs emerge.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, for example by avoiding travel or by choosing a shorter check-in when time is limited. It can also allow steady work on relationship patterns and thought habits through regular meetings. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the options available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists practise online in different ways, and Suzie can discuss practical arrangements once you begin the matching process.
