She uses a variety of psychological principles and theories in her clinical practice, drawn from her broad knowledge base of various different therapeutic techniques and approaches.

I have seen Sue for some time now and have recommended her on several occasions. She has a warm friendly manner and is easy to talk to especially when some things may be of a personal nature. Using a variety of methods to achieve the aim. I found hypnosis to be very calming
