Sue is a qualified counsellor and a member of the Australian Counselling Association. She is deeply committed to helping her clients navigate their challenges and find their inner strengths in a supportive, compassionate and caring environment.

​

Sue is empathic, collaborative and uses a non-judgemental approach to help her clients with grief and loss, trauma, depression and anxiety, ageing and life transitions, parenting difficulties and alcohol and drug addiction.

​

Her passion for therapy began with an interest in health and wellbeing and informal roles as a peer supporter and mentor, after her own personal loss. Sue co-authored the book Always a Part of Me - Surviving Childbearing Loss, listed as an essential resource with organisations such as Grief Australia and Red Nose Australia.

​

Sue is also a qualified clinician in the Parent Hope Project, which features a family systems based collaborative approach to help parents with children who are struggling with mental health and/or social/behavioural issues. 

​

Sue studied counselling after a career as a journalist, where storytelling was an outlet for her curiosity and allowed her to explore the impacts of life on individuals and communities. She graduated with a Master of Counselling from Torrens University and has experience in modalities such as Person-Centred Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI) and mindfulness practice. Sue trained in Vedic meditation in 2019, and this is a fundamental part of her regular practice for self-care and maintaining personal growth. Sue is also an accredited Mediator through the Resolution Institute Sydney.

​

Sue’s therapeutic practice is trauma informed, and she warmly welcomes LGBTQI and Neurodiverse members of the community.

​

Sue sees clients at the Mosman practice on Mondays. Sue also facilitates The Grief Circle and the parent component of our Growing Together teens and family group.
