About Susan
Susan King is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Michigan who helps people manage anger, anxiety, depression, and major life stresses. She brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at clearer coping and calmer days.
Susan keeps the work grounded and relational. She listens first and helps people spot patterns that make stress, conflict, or low mood worse.
Background and approach
Then she and the client try out new ways of responding, one small change at a time. Her approach draws from attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape how people handle emotions. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thoughts that get in the way, and client-centered skills to keep the conversation focused on the person's goals.
These methods are used together to address issues like grief, trauma, addictions, and relationship struggles. Sessions often include learning new skills for handling intense feelings, practicing clearer communication, and building routines that help with sleep and eating. Susan also helps people work through family of origin concerns, forgiveness, and feelings of shame or isolation.
Susan holds licensure in Michigan and Indiana as an LMFT. She draws on both professional experience and personal life transitions to understand how change feels. The work aims to be collaborative, practical, and paced to each person's needs.

Approaches to emotion and relationship work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape reactions to stress and conflict. It helps people understand why certain situations trigger strong emotions and how to change those responses in current relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting and shifting thoughts that lead to unhelpful feelings and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and building new coping habits.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will review your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust the plan as progress and challenges emerge.
Online work can make ongoing therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls let you use visual cues during sessions, phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins or shorter updates between meetings.
