Sue Black MA(Hons) MBACP(Accred) FHEA. Cert. Supervision
About me
The mind and body are connected and work together in a healthy and balanced way. At times this balance can be out of kilter. We tend to notice this with out physical health and take steps to address it. I believe we should do the same with our mental health.
We all experience ups and downs in our lives. Sometimes it can be helpful to speak to someone outside your situation to explore what is going on and to help you find your own solutions.
I have worked as a counsellor since 2004 and have worked in a number of different settings. I offer counselling, supervision and training face-to-face and online. I also offer telephone counselling and supervision.
My premises are in rural Angus and are on ground floor level. There is ample parking space.
