About Suteeporn
ACA. Master of Counselling. Eight years' experience. Suteeporn "Su" Sullivan works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and relationship concerns using approaches she lists such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. She offers counselling in English and Thai in Australia and helps people with parenting and compassion fatigue among other issues.
Su describes her work in straightforward terms. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer communication. She helps people name patterns, practise new ways of responding, and make small changes that reduce overwhelm. Sessions also address grief, anger and the effects of domestic violence or separation where those are part of a person's story.
Her approach draws on several therapies. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and build flexible coping. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thinking and behaviour patterns that keep problems going. Attachment-Based ideas guide work on trust, abandonment and communication problems in close relationships.
Su also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, immigration issues, dissociation and avoidant or dependent personality features. Work can include problem-solving, emotional regulation skills and repairing communication breakdowns in relationships. She uses methods from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when they fit a person's needs.
Sessions are arranged through the site's booking flow. Costs vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the See online counselling options button, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practise small steps that fit their values; it is useful for anxiety, stress and low self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviour patterns, which can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating and helps people work on trust, abandonment concerns and communication problems in close relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That may mean trying skills-based CBT techniques, values work from ACT, or attachment-focused conversations and then adjusting the plan together.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or longer appointments when needed. It also makes it possible to continue work after relocation within Australia and to use written exercises and sheets between meetings to practise skills discussed in sessions.
