About Susan
Susan Hargett is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood shifts, and ADHD. She focuses on building self-compassion and clearer direction in life. Her tone is practical and steady, with an emphasis on small steps that add up over time.
Susan draws on 11 years of clinical experience in Texas. She works with mood disorders and seasonal affective patterns, and she supports people wrestling with self-esteem and life transitions.
How Susan works
Sessions aim to identify immediate coping tools and long-term strategies to manage symptoms and regain balance. Her methods include client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and solution-focused steps. Susan blends these to match what each person needs in the moment rather than following a single formula.
Conversations are meant to be straightforward and goal-oriented while honoring where a person is starting from. She also emphasizes deeper themes such as forgiveness, self-love, and finding life purpose. That work often begins with practical actions - changing daily routines, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and practicing new ways to respond to stress.
Progress is measured in what feels more manageable day to day. Susan invites people who want clear tools and thoughtful reflection. Her approach balances practical skills with attention to personal meaning.
The aim is to help people regain steadiness and move toward a life that feels more satisfying and sustainable.

Therapeutic approaches that fit your life online
Susan uses client-centered therapy to start most work. That means sessions focus on listening closely and shaping the plan around each person's concerns and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that increase anxiety or low mood. These techniques help with day-to-day coping and symptom management.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Susan will review goals, symptoms, and preferences with each person and suggest techniques that match what they want to change. The plan can shift over time as needs and goals evolve, with practical tools added when they are useful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, while phone calls work when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, and family routines while keeping the focus on progress and skill building.
