Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship in which the client is treated with empathy and respect. This approach helps people gain clarity about their feelings and build self-trust, and it is often used for issues like low self-esteem, grief over relationship changes, and general emotional distress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses. It is commonly used for managing anxiety, stress, and mood-related concerns by teaching concrete strategies for coping and problem-solving.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons for change and strengthen commitment to personal goals. It can be especially useful for addressing ambivalence, motivation, and making progress on difficult life decisions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Susan will work with each person to understand their needs, preferences, and goals, and together they will decide which methods to prioritize and adapt over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions take place - by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or to connect from different locations. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support while accommodating varying schedules and communication styles.
