Background and approach

Susan has extensive background in crisis intervention, domestic violence, sexual abuse, fertility and adoption concerns, and gender identity and LGBT issues. She also supports people facing caregiving strain, chronic illness, job and career changes, and compassion fatigue. ADHD is listed among her focus areas when attention and organization create daily challenges.

People working with her can expect direct, respectful conversation that aims to clarify choices and reduce overwhelm. She is comfortable discussing intimate and sensitive topics and will refer a person elsewhere if another clinician could better meet their needs. Susan emphasizes the importance of a trusting therapeutic relationship.

Progress is framed as an inside-out process where clients set priorities and Susan offers guidance, feedback, and practical tools to reach those goals.

Solution-Focused Support and Flexible Online Care

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying small, practical changes that lead to noticeable improvement. Sessions focus on current goals, on what is already working, and on building steps that fit into everyday life. This approach is useful for stress, relationship problems, career decisions, and coping with life changes.

Susan emphasizes collaborative decision making about approach and pacing. She works with each person to decide whether solution-focused work or a different emphasis will best meet their needs. Together they set goals, try strategies, and adjust based on what helps most.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations and real-time feedback. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text allow brief check-ins, focused problem-solving, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life changes.
