About Suteeporn

Suteeporn "Su" Sullivan is an ACA counsellor in Australia with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family problems, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting pressures, anger and low self-esteem. She also focuses on issues such as attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, communication and control issues, and the effects of separation and domestic violence.

Su often works with people who find home life heavy or confusing. She uses plain conversation and practical methods to help people understand their reactions and make small, steady changes. Sessions aim to untangle difficult feelings tied to past hurt and present responsibilities.

Her background includes training in psychology and a Master of Counselling, and she draws on several evidence-informed methods. Su combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of relating. She also uses Client-Centred and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy elements when they suit the work.

In sessions she listens for what matters to each person and helps them set workable goals. Conversations may cover boundaries, managing anger, grief, parenting strain, or repairing communication. Practical skills, gentle experimentation and reflection are common parts of the process.

Su speaks English and Thai. She does not accept international clients. If you want to begin, the usual first step is to complete the short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the See online therapy options button.

How sessions work

How Su uses evidence-based approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try different ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking and behaviour patterns that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Su will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit those aims. The plan can change over time if something else would work better, so the process stays collaborative.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting, work or appointments, and it can allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also means people do not need to travel to attend, which can help maintain continuity of support during busy periods.
