About Sulette

Sulette Snyman is a counsellor with 21 years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She works in a respectful, sensitive and compassionate way. Sulette focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem and depression, and she also offers support around sleep and eating concerns.

She adapts conversations and plans to each person's needs. That means listening first, then shaping practical steps together. Sulette uses straightforward approaches to help people make small changes that add up over time.

Her work includes helping with relationship and intimacy-related issues, career changes, parenting strain and grief. She also supports people facing challenges linked to adoption, attachment and feelings of abandonment. Common themes she sees are isolation, guilt and life-purpose questions.

Sulette uses a mix of talking therapies to suit different goals. She draws on client-centred methods to centre the person, cognitive behavioural ideas to tackle thoughts and behaviours, and EMDR for trauma-focused work when appropriate. Motivational interviewing and existential perspectives also inform her conversations.

Sessions are conducted in English and Afrikaans, and Sulette accepts international clients. If someone wants to try therapy she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions to suit timing and need.

How counselling approaches support online care

Client-centred work places the person's experience at the heart of each session. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the client's pace to identify what matters most and where to start.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It breaks problems into manageable steps and helps with sleep, anxiety and mood by introducing practical strategies to change routines and thinking habits.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional impact. When appropriate, it can be included as part of a broader plan to address trauma-related sleep disruption or distress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, what has helped before, and any worries about certain methods. Together they decide which approaches to try and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

For practical online care, check the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins or longer sessions depending on need, and they remove travel time so people can use appointment slots that match their day.
