How sessions work
How Susan’s approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify priorities and feel understood while deciding what changes to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT can target mood problems, anxiety, and behavior changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. These skills can be useful for managing anger, impulsivity, and intense emotional reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Susan will discuss goals, preferences, and daily realities and then recommend methods to try. That decision is collaborative and may shift as needs change.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow a shorter check-in during a work break, or remove travel time. Therapists can assign short skill practices between sessions and review progress without needing extra travel.
