About Susan
Susan Toth is a licensed social worker in South Carolina who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship struggles. She brings 16 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical ways to feel steadier and more capable. Her approach centers on the individual and on building clear, achievable steps forward.
She emphasizes short-term tools and steady progress. That can mean working on coping skills for anxiety, practicing communication for strained relationships, or addressing patterns that feed anger and impulsivity.
How Susan works
She also supports people managing grief, sleep problems, addiction concerns, caregiving strain, and career or parenting pressures. Susan uses client-centered methods to keep the person’s goals front and center. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to reduce overwhelm and increase calm in daily life. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused. She works with each person to set clear priorities and measure small gains.
Therapy is paced to match individual needs, whether someone wants brief solution-focused work or a longer course of support. Her background includes many years helping people untangle family-of-origin issues, codependency, commitment and communication problems, and the fallout from infidelity or domestic violence. Susan explains concepts in plain language and emphasizes skills people can use between sessions.

Online support options
Approaches you can use online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experiences. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps the client set priorities and next steps. This approach helps when someone needs a respectful, steady space to sort through feelings and make choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It involves spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to see what changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, sleep problems, and habits related to addiction.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Susan will work collaboratively to choose which methods to try based on needs, goals, and personal preference. Sessions can focus on short-term solutions or on deeper patterns depending on what the person wants to achieve.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone calls can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth, and messaging is useful for short check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care while fitting therapy into a busy life.
