There is more to treating illness than merely the removal of symptoms. Homeopathy is a system of medicine that looks beyond the symptoms and at the cause of conditions, which really does make a lot of sense. To find true health we need to treat the whole person, look in detail at their symptoms, take into account their psychology, their past medical history and patterns of illness that they have inherited. Homeopathy can treat illness at this level and involves understanding an individual and how and why they have become unwell.
My background in Psychology (BSc) and Clinical Neuroscience (MSc) mean that I have an understanding and experience of psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, addictions and grief. I am also experienced in treating menstrual and menopausal issues, allergies (my dissertation was on the treatment of hay fever in homeopathy), unresolved coughs, digestive disturbances, arthritic complaints, and complaints that conventional medicine has been unable to resolve.

Why try homeopathy
What happens when you see a homeopath
Sue Baker
I discovered homeopathy as a first-time mother of a very colicky baby. Unable to find her any relief I saw a homeopath and was immediately impressed and fascinated when she asked me not only about the symptoms of the colic, but how my baby responded to the pain, what made it better or worse, what sort of baby she was and about her birth. The consultation went beyond the obvious physical symptoms and looked at everything about my baby. A remedy was prescribed based on what I told the homeopath, and on what she herself observed about her, and it worked! This fascinated me and I had to know more, and after using homeopathy at home with very pleasing results with my family and pets for some years I decided to formally train. My children now aged 18 and 20 have been brought up with homeopathy as their main form of medicine, and I continue to be amazed at the scope of it, from the smallest acute to chronic illness.
I initially studied at the London School of Classical Homeopathy and then The British School of Homeopathy for 4 years, graduating in 2007. I then studied for three years with the Dynamis School of Homeopathic Studies obtaining an Advanced practitioner post graduate qualification in 2012.
I also work as a supervisor of student Homeopaths. I am a registered member of the Alliance of Registered Homeopaths (ARH) and am fully insured to practice homeopathy.

"Our family have been visiting Sue since we moved to the area in 2011. Sue has an ability to obtain a clear picture of each one of us and her prescribing has been spot on. She has helped us through acute illnesses as well as supporting our general well- being to improve our quality of life. Sue has a wonderful rapport with my young children and they are always willing to talk with her. She is extremely genuine and caring. I am so grateful for the positive effect she continues to make in our lives, Thank you!" VC.
"I'm happy to report that she is now like a different baby. She's also sleeping for 5 hours at a time which is much more manageable now that I'm due back at work in a few weeks. She is now walking as well and is so much happier. I cannot thank you enough for all your help, you've been brilliant." FW
"Thank you for the remedy. I feel it has been working on a deeper subtle level. An inner seeing. I have had the feeling of a melting inside and great sense of peace and rightness. I experienced this before with your perception and treatment so thank you very much." MC.
Consultation
A consultation involves you describing your symptoms in your own way and answering questions to establish a good picture of you and how you function. Questions may relate to lifestyle, temperament, likes and dislikes, family and personal medical history, dreams, as well as the current presenting symptoms.
Gaining an understanding of you and your condition takes time so the initial consultation lasts for an hour and a half. Subsequent consultations are half an hour to forty five minutes and are about four weeks after the initial treatment. Generally speaking, the initial consultation may be followed by one or two follow-ups and maybe some telephone or email support in between.
Once you are registered as a patient, I offer advice and treatment for acute illnesses as they occur. I also maintain good contact with patients in between appointments.

My patients say...
"Sue treated me for menopause symptoms, hot flushes and disturbed sleep. The treatment was really effective and I have almost no hot flushes and have been sleeping untroubled through the night. Really grateful and Sue's help has made a huge difference." KB.
"I have taken my three children to see Sue and she has been lovely and caring with them all. Homeopathy is amazing and we have seen some marked improvements using it. Sue is generous with her time, gentle and non- judgemental. She gives great follow up care and ensures that the right remedy is found.
It’s lovely having a homeopath that can treat my whole family and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Sue to others." EM.
"I took along my 12 year old daughter to see Sue when she was diagnosed with Post Viral Fatigue. We were made to feel very valued and after an in-depth consultation Sue knew exactly what remedy to prescribe for my daughter. This proved to be an absolute turning point for my daughter and gradually she managed to go back to school on a part time basis to begin with and was gradually integrated back into a full time timetable.
I am so grateful for Sue's understanding and caring approach, and have recommended her to other people. Most importantly I am delighted with my daughter's health and wellbeing as she is a better adjusted and well balanced girl."
About Homeopathy
Homeopathy was discovered by Samuel Hahnemann, a German doctor living between 1755-1843, and is now the second largest form of medicine used in the world. It is a highly individualised form of medicine that addresses the scientifically acknowledged link between our physical and emotional selves. Homeopathy places emphasis on the individuals own unique experience of their symptoms. There is not simply one remedy for a particular illness, but rather one remedy, out of a whole range, which is carefully selected on the basis of each patient’s own variation of that condition.
In building up a relationship with a homeopath you have a practitioner who knows you uniquely; how you respond to life’s stresses strains and illnesses, and therefore how best to treat them using non-invasive medicines, free of side effects.
Homeopathy is the second largest system of medicine in the world today, as recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
