Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Susan draws from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused therapy to tailor care to each person she sees. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, creating a supportive environment where clients lead the conversation and explore their values and goals; this approach can be helpful for stress, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, panic, and mood symptoms. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on strengths and short-term goal setting, helping clients build actionable steps toward change when dealing with specific problems like impulsivity or social anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Susan works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats increase flexibility for scheduling, make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods or health limitations, and let clients choose the communication style that fits their comfort and daily life.
