About Suzie
Suzie Pugh BACP offers support for parents facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, eating and sleep difficulties, addiction issues, and the practical strains of parenting. She works with people coping with trauma, anger, career worries, bipolar and depression, ADHD, and life changes. Suzie aims to create a calm space where parents can talk through what matters most right now.
Suzie uses approaches that focus on attachment, present experience, thinking patterns and mindfulness.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped around each person's goals and pace. She listens carefully and helps people notice unhelpful patterns, try new ways of relating, and develop day-to-day skills to manage mood and stress. With eight years of clinical experience, Suzie brings a mix of short-term and deeper work to meet different needs.
She also runs therapeutic support groups at a mental health charity, offering additional experience working with people who are struggling with emotional wellbeing. Suzie holds BACP accreditation, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She is currently studying toward a postgraduate-level qualification in attachment-focused psychotherapy, due for completion in June 2026.
Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled in a variety of online formats. Suzie encourages a collaborative approach so parents can find strategies that fit their everyday life and family routines.

Practical approaches you can use online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Sessions help people notice how past hurts affect present parenting and relationships, and try new, gentler ways of relating.Client-centred therapy focuses on a compassionate, non-judgemental listening style. It gives people space to be heard and to make sense of their feelings, which can be especially helpful when navigating family stress or personal crises.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Suzie will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's needs, goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as things change over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily routines.
