About Susan

Susan Mount is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 22 years of experience. She brings steady, practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and related concerns. Her manner is warm and interactive, and she focuses on real changes you can notice over time.

Susan has worked in orphanages, residential treatment settings, and addiction centers. She has supported many children and young adults who experienced emotional or physical abuse.

Background and approach

She has also worked with parents to improve communication and to build stronger relationships with their children. Her style is strength-based and compassionate. Sessions are collaborative and aimed at helping people find what works for them.

She uses straightforward talk, problem-solving, and expressive activities when they fit the person’s needs. Susan draws on multiple approaches, including attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive-behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused work, and existential perspectives. She mixes methods to match each person's situation rather than following a single formula.

People come to her for help with grief, addictions, eating and food-related issues, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and more. She also supports concerns like codependency, dissociation, post-traumatic stress, and first responder issues. If someone is unsure where to begin, Susan works together with them to identify goals and small first steps.

She emphasizes practical tools and steady support so people can move toward clearer priorities and better day-to-day functioning.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people who feel stuck in repeating relationship patterns or who want more reliable emotional connection. Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and pace, offering nonjudgmental listening and shared understanding to help people clarify what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change patterns related to anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations and exercises that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, homework support, or maintaining momentum between longer appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, caregiving, or busy daily routines.
