About Sue
Sue Frazier-Bear is a Licensed Professional Counselor with twenty years of experience helping people manage strong emotions and life changes. She offers a calm, respectful presence and focuses on what a person needs right now. Her work often addresses stress, anxiety, anger, grief, depression, and identity concerns.
She brings experience from clinical settings, education, and supervising new counselors. That background informs how she structures sessions and explains options. Sessions use short practical exercises as well as deeper reflection when it helps.
Background and approach
Her approach mixes modern and traditional ideas. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and act in line with their values. Mindfulness practices and relaxation exercises are used to reduce reactivity and calm the body.
She also draws on psychodynamic and Jungian ideas to look at patterns that repeat in a person’s life. Internal Family Systems is used when parts of the self feel conflicted or stuck. These approaches are combined to match each person's needs.
Sue works with adults on a range of concerns including parenting stress, career changes, ADHD, trauma and relationship difficulties. She is affirming of LGBT identities and experienced supporting people facing grief, chronic illness concerns, and end-of-life issues. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, practical tools between sessions, and collaborative planning.
She aims to help people build skills to manage strong feelings and move toward goals that matter to them.

How these approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. Online ACT sessions often use short exercises and homework to build habits between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage strong emotions such as anger or anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time if something is not helping.
Online formats allow flexible ways to connect. Video calls are useful for deeper conversation and guided practices. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or skill practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit care into work and family schedules and to continue progress when in-person visits are not possible.
