Su Dunn, BACP

Su Dunn is a United Kingdom based therapist with 18 years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, and major life changes. She brings a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate approach to her practice and adapts treatment to each person’s individual needs and circumstances. Su works with a wide range of concerns including attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, relationship separation, loneliness, questions about life purpose, midlife transitions, self-love, and issues affecting women.

Su is a registered member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). These organisations are professional bodies in the UK that set standards for ethical practice and ongoing professional development for counsellors and psychotherapists. Across her work she uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the presenting problem and the client’s goals.

Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life can require courage, and Su offers steady support through that process. She collaborates with clients to create a treatment plan that fits their priorities and practical needs, helping them build coping strategies, process difficult experiences, and move toward meaningful change.

Evidence-based approaches and the benefits of online therapy

Su applies a range of evidence-based techniques adapted to the needs of each client. One common focus is skills-based work to address unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour - practical strategies that help reduce anxiety, improve mood, and support coping in day-to-day life. Another strand is trauma-sensitive work that prioritises pacing and emotional safety while helping clients process difficult experiences and reclaim a sense of stability. Su also offers support that attends to attachment and relationship patterns, helping people understand how early and current relationships influence their wellbeing.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Su collaborates with clients to explore what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time based on the individual’s goals, preferences, and progress. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy with Su is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments. These options increase accessibility and flexibility while allowing clients to receive consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel.
