About Suteeporn
Suteeporn "Su" Sullivan offers a counselling approach grounded in collaboration and practical support. She uses Motivational Interviewing alongside other therapies to help people find reasons to change and keep moving forward. Su writes in a warm, direct way and aims to make therapy feel manageable from the first session.
Su has eight years of experience working with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, grief, anger and compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with attachment difficulties, abandonment feelings and issues that follow separation or divorce.
Her sessions focus on clear, doable steps rather than long lectures. Clients can expect to talk through what matters most, practise new ways of relating, and learn simple tools to manage difficult emotions. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when those methods suit the work.
Su holds ACA credentials, and she offers services in English and Thai. She practises in Australia and tailors her approach to each person’s life and culture. Practical needs like communication problems, control issues and caregiver stress are commonly addressed in her work.
People who come to Su often want help rebuilding trust, finding motivation for change, or healing from past hurts. She aims to create a steady, respectful space where clients can explore feelings and try new patterns without pressure. The first step is a short questionnaire to match needs and schedule a session.

How therapeutic styles guide online work
Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change and build momentum. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure how to begin a new direction. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and still move toward meaningful values, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and issues that follow trauma. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relational patterns formed early in life and helps people rewrite how they connect with others, which often aids relationship and family concerns.
Finding the right blend of these approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that best fit the situation. That means therapy is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
This profile does not list specific online formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work from whichever environment helps them focus, and sessions can be adapted to suit handling emotion, practising new skills or checking in after difficult events. -
