About Susan
Susan aims to create a casual, laid-back atmosphere where clients feel heard and respected. Her style balances sensitivity with clear, steady guidance so that people can explore difficult topics without feeling rushed. She believes healing often involves attention to mind, body, and spirit, and encourages work that considers all three areas when appropriate.
Susan supports clients across life stages and offers help with family dynamics, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, grief, stress, and other issues. When someone decides to begin counseling, Susan is prepared to walk alongside them, offering compassionate and practical guidance as they work toward the life they want. She looks forward to meeting new clients and supporting their progress.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Susan Soares
Susan blends client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to meet each person where they are. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship so clients can explore feelings and values and gain clarity about their goals. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress, which can be especially helpful for people experiencing strong emotional swings or relationship challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Susan works collaboratively with each client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her approach as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Susan is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and varied comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across life changes and geographic constraints while receiving consistent support from a licensed professional.
