About Susan Frey
Susan Frey has worked as a therapist for more than 16 years. She earned a master’s degree in counseling psychology from Seton Hall University - a graduate degree that prepared her for clinical practice - and holds a Bachelor of Science from York College of Pennsylvania. Her path into counseling followed a sudden disruption in her own life, a shift that prompted a career change and shaped her compassionate, practical approach to helping others.
Susan has treated a wide range of concerns including addictions, anxiety, depression, stress, grief, bipolar disorder, and anger management. She typically relies on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to distress, but she is flexible in adapting methods to fit each person’s needs. For some individuals she uses short-term solution-focused techniques or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support progress when those approaches better match the presenting issues.
Susan emphasizes practical goal-setting and measurable progress, working with clients to build skills that support a more fulfilling, satisfying life. Her practice centers on collaboration, tailoring interventions to each person’s situation and priorities, with the aim of helping clients move toward meaningful change and improved daily functioning.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Susan Frey draws from several evidence-informed approaches to help clients address stress, mood concerns, addiction, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, and coping with daily challenges. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that lead to a more meaningful life, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and persistent struggles. Solution-Focused Therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented approach that concentrates on strengths and achievable steps, making it a good fit for clients seeking focused change in specific areas.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Susan works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative exploration helps ensure therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.
