About Susan
Susan has worked in many settings across her career. That background shapes a flexible approach that she adapts to each person’s situation. She focuses on practical skills and tools that clients can use between sessions to manage symptoms and make clearer decisions.
In sessions she outlines strategies, teaches coping techniques, and practices communication skills with clients. The goal is to build a toolkit that helps manage daily pressures and improves how people relate to themselves and others. She also addresses related topics like attachment, abandonment, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and life transitions.
Susan describes therapy as a shared effort. She listens, offers feedback, and adjusts methods to match a person’s goals and pace. That may mean short-term skill building or longer work on deeper patterns, depending on what the person wants.
She is offering telehealth services and invites prospective clients to think about the changes they want to make. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are at the core of her work, focused on practical help for everyday problems. One common approach she uses is skills-based work that teaches coping strategies for stress and anxiety, such as breathing techniques, activity planning, and step-by-step problem solving. These tools help reduce overwhelm and make daily routines more manageable.Another frequent element is communication skills training. This involves practicing ways to express needs, set boundaries, and repair misunderstandings, which can improve interactions at work and home. For ADHD and depression she may emphasize structure and small habit changes to build momentum and reduce avoidance.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try methods, and adjust as progress is tracked. Clients help steer what is tried and decide whether a faster problem-focused plan or a longer-term exploration is best.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day, which can reduce travel time and make ongoing work more consistent. Because this listing does not specify session formats, confirm current options before booking to know which formats are supported. The emphasis is on finding approaches that fit a person’s life and needs, so work can continue in ways that are manageable and actionable.
