What Susan works with
Everything Susan lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Susan's practice.
Therapeutic techniques and online care
Two evidence-based approaches Susan commonly uses are skills-based strategies and problem-focused talk. Skills-based strategies teach concrete coping tools for managing anger, anxiety, or stress - for example breathing, grounding, and short behavioral experiments to test new responses. Problem-focused talk looks at specific relationship or life situations and breaks them into manageable steps to reduce overwhelm and improve decision-making.She also uses supportive counseling to help people process emotions like grief, shame, or isolation. This style emphasizes clear listening, validation, and steady planning so people feel understood while they try new ways of coping. These methods are often combined and adapted to the person’s goals and life context.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to decide what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan is revisited and adjusted as the work progresses.
Online therapy with Susan is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and interactive skill coaching. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when scheduling a longer session is difficult. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
