About Susan
Susan Nimrod is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Kansas with three decades of clinical experience. She focuses on making the first step into therapy less awkward and more manageable. Her aim is to build a relaxed, nonjudgmental working relationship focused on clear goals and real-life changes.
In sessions she uses plain talk and practical tools. She often helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and sleep trouble.
Background and approach
She also supports those facing depression, grief, relationship strains, parenting challenges, and big life changes like career shifts or fertility and pregnancy concerns. Susan draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which links thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so people can try new ways of responding.
She blends that with a broader mind-and-body perspective, looking at how daily routines, sleep, and physical health affect mood and coping. Her background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient settings and a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Kansas.
Over the years she has worked with adults and has experience addressing aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related concerns, midlife transitions, and Seasonal Affective Disorder. Susan keeps sessions focused on practical steps and small experiments clients can try between meetings. She invites straightforward conversation and partners with people to set achievable goals and track progress over time.

Approaches Susan lists

How CBT and online sessions can help with everyday struggles
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. It helps with symptoms like anxiety, low mood, anger, and trouble sleeping by teaching concrete skills clients can practice between sessions.The broader mind-and-body perspective she uses looks at routines, sleep, and physical habits that affect mood. It encourages small lifestyle changes alongside skill-building so people can see practical improvements in daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which strategies to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face-to-face without travel. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a hands-free check-in fits the day. Live chat and messaging suit quick updates, short check-ins, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, parenting, or medical schedules.
