About Sue
Sue Daniel is a licensed master social worker with three decades of experience supporting people through grief, stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She works in a direct, compassionate way and focuses on what a person needs right now. Sue aims to help people manage caregiving strain, relationship concerns, and low self-esteem as they move through change.
Sue trained in social work and followed a career path that began in elder care.
Background and approach
She has worked in nursing homes, care management through an Area Agency on Aging, hospice, home care, senior housing, and elder law settings. That background shaped her focus on aging, caregiver stress, cancer, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and geriatric issues. In sessions she uses Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness methods.
She favors short, clear conversations that surface feelings and practical coping steps. Mindfulness exercises and emotion-focused work are used to help people notice and name their emotions, reduce overwhelm, and improve communication. Sue describes therapy as a collaborative process.
She meets people where they are and adapts her approach to individual needs. This includes working on communication problems, guilt and shame, loneliness, midlife challenges, and seasonal mood shifts. Her practice includes coaching-style support for career concerns and parenting stress, and she brings experience supporting people facing cancer, hospice needs, and bereavement.
Sessions aim to blend emotional understanding with practical next steps.

How Sue’s Approach Fits Online Therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people tune into and name their feelings so they can change difficult patterns. It can be useful for grief, relationship tension, and feeling stuck during life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting therapeutic relationship; it supports people who need a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk. Mindfulness Therapy adds simple practices to help reduce stress and improve focus, and it can be used when anxiety or rumination make daily life harder.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sue will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That may mean combining emotion-focused work with mindfulness practices or centering sessions on supportive, client-centered conversation depending on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity during transitions.
