How Susan works
Her style is warm and interactive. Sessions are strength-focused and compassionate, with an emphasis on building skills that matter in day-to-day life. She encourages people to discover their own resources and use them to move forward.
Susan uses several approaches depending on the situation. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centered work to follow a person's priorities, cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and emotionally focused tools to address close relationship struggles. She also draws on existential themes when people question meaning and direction.
People who come to her often want practical tools, clearer communication, or relief from overwhelming feelings.

Online support options
Approaches that translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in how people connect and respond in relationships. Online sessions can use this approach to identify repeating interaction styles and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses exercises and skill-building that work well in video or phone sessions and can include homework between meetings. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s goals and pace, offering a listening, non-directive space to work through what matters most. This approach supports people who need validation and a thinker-friendly rhythm rather than fast techniques.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Susan will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan if something feels off or unhelpful.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues for relationship work and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill reminders, or support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy or changing schedules and allow consistent contact across distances.
