About Suzanne

Suzanne Caldwell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression, along with a range of related difficulties such as parenting strain, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD. Suzanne speaks English and practices in Florida.

Her approach draws on practical, evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Suzanne also incorporates Emotionally-Focused and Mindfulness practices when they fit a person's goals.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She listens to what feels most pressing, then helps set small, manageable steps. She pays attention to family and parenting stressors and how they affect daily life.

Suzanne helps people cope with loss, trauma, and big life changes. She works with addictions, bipolar mood concerns, and co-occurring conditions by focusing on coping skills and clearer communication. She also addresses issues like body image, attachment concerns, and blended family stress.

Her work often centers on improving communication and reducing overwhelm. Suzanne supports people seeking better emotional regulation, clearer boundaries, and more consistent routines. To begin, she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the online options button.

How sessions work

How Suzanne uses therapy approaches in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It teaches values-based action so someone can take concrete steps even when emotions are strong. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person's own perspective. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflecting back concerns and helping clarify goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Suzanne treats approach selection as a collaborative process. She will help identify what methods fit a person's goals, needs, and preferences and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - appointments can be scheduled around parenting duties, work breaks, or medical appointments. Remote sessions can reduce travel time and let people check in from quieter surroundings or choose a shorter check-in when time is limited. Licensed professionals, including Suzanne, use these methods to focus on practical coping skills, improved communication, and manageable steps toward daily functioning.
