Suzie Pugh

Suzie Pugh is a counsellor with eight years' experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, and struggles with self-esteem and eating. She also helps those dealing with trauma, addiction concerns, sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career concerns, bipolar and depression, and people adjusting to life changes or ADHD. Suzie offers calm, focused sessions that aim to make difficult problems easier to talk about and understand.

Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred ways of working, alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. Sessions focus on the person's own priorities and proceed at a pace that feels workable. She uses inner child and attachment work with people who are coping with abandonment, attachment wounds or difficult relationship patterns.

Suzie works with issues such as codependency, communication and commitment problems, body image and eating concerns, and difficulties arising from chronic pain, illness or caregiving. She also offers help around separation and divorce, blended family challenges, dissociation and avoidant or dependent personality patterns. The aim is to build clarity about patterns and practical ways to change them.

Alongside one-to-one work she runs a fortnightly therapeutic support group for people facing emotional and mental health challenges at a mental health charity. She is currently studying a Post-Grad Level 7 (Masters Level) qualification in Attachment-Focused Psychotherapy due to complete in June 2026.

Suzie is registered with the BACP, works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. She supports international clients as part of her practice.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current connections. It can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment fears or repeating the same relationship problems. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person in the room, giving space to be heard and understood while the counsellor follows the client's priorities and pace. It often helps people who feel overwhelmed or unsure where to begin.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and adapt methods to fit the person's needs. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be blended over time as clarity grows about what helps most.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow appointments during shorter breaks. It can also allow people to choose quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera when preferred, or use sessions that suit their daily routine. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists generally aim to help people apply skills learned in sessions to everyday life.
