About Sulette

Sulette Snyman is an NCPS-credentialled counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 21 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and issues with motivation. She also lists concerns such as parenting, relationship strain, grief and intimacy-related problems among her focus areas.

She uses practical, conversational therapy rather than technical jargon. Sessions focus on clear goals and steady progress, with work that includes talking through difficult memories and finding ways to cope day to day. She draws on different approaches as needed, including methods that address thought patterns and approaches that focus on present experience.

Her background includes long-term work supporting people with mood difficulties and trauma-related problems. That experience informs how she structures sessions and plans next steps with a client. She names additional areas of interest such as adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, fertility issues, immigration-related stress and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are conducted in English and Afrikaans, and she accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and are delivered through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled.

Sulette aims to keep sessions straightforward and practical. Expect steady, conversational work that focuses on the problems brought to the room and on building coping skills for everyday life.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the client to find their own solutions. It helps when people want a collaborative, respectful conversation about problems and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and provides practical techniques to manage anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to work through traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the client's goals and preferences. That collaborative choice shapes how sessions are planned and what techniques are tried first.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy into a busy home life easier, for example by removing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. They also make it feasible to meet a counsellor who works in a different country, and allow flexibility with scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often adapt exercises and homework to suit an online format, which helps keep progress steady without changing day-to-day routines.
