How Susan’s approaches translate to online therapy

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily signals without judgment. This practice can reduce rumination and make stress and strong emotions easier to sit with, which is useful for anxiety, grief, and compassion fatigue.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand their connection styles and learn different ways to relate when intimacy or family issues are painful or confusing.

Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the center. The therapist listens closely, reflects what’s important, and supports the person in finding their own solutions and strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Susan will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit best with a person’s goals and preferences. Together they set aims, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what actually helps.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Many people find online work useful for fitting sessions into busy days, shortening commute time, easing check-ins during a work break, or choosing a quieter setting for focused conversation. Licensed professionals can adapt mindfulness practices, attachment-focused conversations, and client-centered reflection to remote sessions so work continues across locations.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
