Susan Jentoft, LPC

Susan Jentoft is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience helping people through difficult life chapters. She works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and relationship concerns. Her approach is grounded in practical support and steady guidance rather than jargon.

She focuses on meeting each person where they are. Sessions aim to clarify what matters to the client and build small, manageable steps toward change. Susan draws on several therapy styles to match the work to the person's goals.

Susan uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that fuel anxiety or low mood and to practice new skills. Client-Centered Therapy shapes sessions around the client’s pace and perspective.

Her practice often addresses midlife transitions, career shifts, parenting stress, and caregiving challenges. She also supports those dealing with trauma, addiction concerns, eating or sleeping struggles, and issues with self-esteem and intimacy.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation, tools to manage emotions, and space to reflect on long-term changes. The aim is to leave each session with clear next steps and ways to try things differently between meetings.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Susan works from several well-established approaches that can fit different needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take steps in line with their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing concrete skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the session focused on the person's experience, pacing work to the client's readiness and priorities.

Figuring out the right approach is a collaborative process. Susan will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust as needed. The aim is to find tools and ways of working that feel useful in day-to-day life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during a workday or between responsibilities. It can also let someone use audio-only or video check-ins when that fits their needs better. Ask about available formats when scheduling to choose what works best.
