About Suteeporn

Suteeporn "Su" Sullivan is an ACA counsellor with eight years' experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship problems. Su also works with parenting strain, grief, anger, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. She speaks English and Thai and practises in Australia.

Su uses clear, practical methods to help people notice thoughts and habits that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on concrete steps clients can try between meetings. The first conversations map what matters most and set short, doable goals.

Her background includes a degree in Psychology and a Master of Counselling. That training supports a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Su also draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas when relationships and past hurts are central to the work.

When relationship difficulties are the focus, she addresses communication breakdowns, trust issues and separation or divorce concerns. For trauma or abuse she works with pacing and emotional regulation techniques rather than pushing people to relive memories.

Su describes therapy as collaborative and practical. People leave sessions with specific strategies to test in everyday life. To begin, prospective clients follow the online matching steps and book an initial session.

How CBT, ACT and attachment work online

Su commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thinking patterns and test practical behaviour changes. CBT sessions tend to focus on small experiments and homework that clients can try between meetings to see what helps.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build actions that match those values, which can help when worry or avoidance get in the way. Attachment-Based Therapy is used when past relationships shape current reactions, concentrating on recognising attachment patterns and trying new ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Su collaborates with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and day-to-day life. She reviews what helps and adjusts methods if needed so the plan stays practical and relevant.

The therapist's session formats are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins, phone-only appointments when bandwidth is limited, or camera sessions when visual cues help the work.
