Background and approach
Her methods draw on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help uncover and shift patterns in close relationships.

Susan integrates mindfulness and body-aware ideas when helpful, and she tailors plans to each client’s goals.
She offers coaching-oriented guidance for career and life-purpose concerns alongside therapy work. People who work with her typically set clear goals together and practice new ways of coping between sessions. Her aim is to help clients build skills and find more satisfying ways to relate to themselves and others.

Online support
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how people connect and respond to one another. Online sessions can be used to notice emotional patterns and practice new ways of relating in real time. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify values and take action despite difficult thoughts or feelings, which often turns into short exercises and homework that travel well between sessions.Attachment-Based Therapy examines early and current relationship patterns to reduce loneliness and improve trust. In remote work these ideas become concrete tasks and conversation experiments that clients try out between meetings. Susan treats approach selection as a team effort and will help clients decide which methods fit best based on their goals and preferences.
Online formats offer flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited mobility. Video calls let therapists and clients read facial cues and do deeper emotional work. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a quiet check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for shorter check-ins, practicing skills, or getting support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and adapt care to everyday life.
