About Susan
Susan Toth is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) in South Carolina and has 16 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, addiction, grief, sleep problems, parenting pressures, and work-related issues. Her practice also addresses family-related concerns such as family of origin issues and caregiving stress.
Susan uses a collaborative, client-centered approach. She helps people talk through relationship patterns, communication problems, and difficulties with commitment or control. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, and on strategies for managing impulsivity, anger, and overwhelm.
Her methods draw from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness alongside solution-focused conversations. That means she helps clients notice unhelpful thinking, practice attention and breathing skills, and set short-term goals to test changes. These tools are used to address problems like addiction, infidelity, and the emotional fallout from divorce or separation.
Susan also works with issues tied to caregiving, compassion fatigue, fertility struggles, and forgiveness. She supports people processing trauma and domestic violence concerns while keeping the pace matched to each person's needs. Her approach emphasizes clearer communication, steadier coping, and rebuilding day-to-day routines.
People who choose Susan can expect direct, practical guidance and a focus on what they want to change. She asks about real-life constraints and helps plan doable steps. To start, she invites prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Susan’s approaches translate to online work
Susan commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in her work. CBT involves noticing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing small changes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and impulsivity. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and support calmer responses to stress and cravings.Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. She will talk with each person about goals, past work that helped or didn’t help, and practical limits like time or energy. Together they decide which techniques to prioritize and how to try them between sessions.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking. When exploring online care, the main practical benefits are easier scheduling, less travel, and the ability to fit brief check-ins into a busy day. Some formats may also use less bandwidth or allow sessions without video when that helps someone keep meetings short and focused. Ask about current session formats so you know how a plan can fit into your everyday life.
