Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Susan commonly uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify their own reasons for change and build motivation in a nonjudgmental way; this is useful for substance use, ambivalence about change, and stages of recovery. She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, or relationship stress and to develop practical skills for managing those patterns. Mindfulness therapy is another component of her work, offering simple attention and grounding practices that support emotion regulation and stress management.Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Susan works collaboratively with each person to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they evaluate what feels most helpful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy modalities - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - provide flexibility and easier access to consistent care. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to meet people where they are, accommodate busy schedules, and maintain continuity of support through life changes.
