Sue is Director of Professional Practice and Ethics at the Dartmoor Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

In all her work Sue is a passionate advocate for the value of authentic relationship as the basis, the starting point, for the therapeutic process.    She comes to the therapeutic profession from a background of many years as a Samaritan Volunteer and from working in business management.  She has training experience both in the voluntary sector and in the business environment.  Some years ago she trained as a ‘Sedona Method’ teacher and facilitator.  This technique based practice, which today might be described under the ‘mindfulness’ label, compliments her relational approach.  The theoretical schools of therapy in which Susan’s practice is grounded include, ‘Person Centered Counseling’, ‘Integrative Psychotherapy’ and Gestalt Therapy.
