Sujarda Herring , NCPS

Sujarda Herring is an integrative counsellor and holistic therapist originally from Newcastle who now practices in Scotland. She combines therapeutic techniques to address cognitive, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of wellbeing, offering support for major life transitions, trauma, bereavement and everyday stresses alike. Sujarda works with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief, sleep problems, parenting challenges, and issues related to identity and sexuality.

Her practice emphasizes a compassionate, person-focused approach that creates space to explore thoughts and feelings, develop new perspectives and build practical coping strategies. Sujarda maintains a private practice called Space to Tame in central Edinburgh and also provides online therapy to people across the United Kingdom. She holds the NCPS credential, a recognised professional qualification indicating formal training in counselling and psychotherapy.

In sessions clients choose the format and length that suit them - from video or audio to live messaging - and can expect a collaborative process that includes discussion, reflection and optional between-session resources such as worksheets and follow-up messages. Sujarda aims to tailor each course of work to individual needs, helping people navigate change and find clearer ways of coping.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

In her practice Sujarda draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on the individual's own experience and priorities. This approach emphasizes empathy, active listening and collaboration, and it can help people who need support exploring feelings, rebuilding self-esteem or working through relationship and identity issues.

She also integrates mindfulness therapy techniques that teach present-moment awareness and practical strategies for reducing stress and improving emotional regulation. Mindfulness can be useful for anxiety, sleep difficulties and coping with chronic stress.

Sujarda uses hypnotherapy where appropriate to support focused relaxation and guided visualization, which some people find helpful for breaking unhelpful patterns and strengthening motivation for change. Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process - Sujarda works together with each person to identify methods that fit their goals, preferences and situation, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Sujarda is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life circumstances. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access support from anywhere in the United Kingdom, while allowing therapists and clients to collaborate in ways that suit individual needs.
