Susan Domingue, LPC

Susan Domingue is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana who helps people navigate relationship challenges, major life changes, and personal growth. With a focus on building clearer communication, greater self-understanding, and practical coping skills, she supports clients facing stress, anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, and intimacy-related issues. Her work also includes support for families, parenting struggles, and individuals coping with addiction, trauma, or the emotional impacts of separation and divorce.

Susan has experience working with a range of populations, including LGBTQ+ clients, older adults, and veterans, and she brings a compassionate, nonjudgmental style to sessions. She emphasizes evidence-based strategies to help clients manage symptoms, improve relationships, and move forward through transitions. Areas of additional focus include abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose, and midlife concerns.

Clients can expect a collaborative approach that combines practical tools with exploration of personal values and identity. Susan draws from therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to tailor treatment to each person’s needs, helping them build resilience and greater self-acceptance as they work toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is practical and goal-oriented, often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and sleep difficulties by teaching skills to manage symptoms and change daily habits.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It is useful for people who struggle with intense emotions, impulsivity, or relationship conflicts, offering concrete skills to stabilize mood and improve communication.

Susan approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that finding the right method is part of the process. She works with clients to assess goals, preferences, and needs, and then tailors techniques from these approaches to fit each person. This shared decision-making helps clients test what works and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, reduce travel time, and allow clients to access licensed professionals from familiar settings.
