Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Susan draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques to support change. Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting each person where they are - the therapist listens deeply and helps clients explore their values and choices, which can be especially useful for relationship concerns and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) works with the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; it helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and address impulsive or avoidant behaviors. Mindfulness therapy introduces present-focused practices that increase self-awareness and emotion regulation, supporting stress reduction and clearer decision-making.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the collaborative work Susan undertakes with each client. She partners with people to assess goals, preferences, and needs, then adjusts techniques over time so the treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into a busy life and to connect from different locations. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, allow for continuity through transitions, and enable ongoing support between in-person opportunities, helping clients maintain momentum toward their goals.
