Client-Centered Therapy starts with listening closely and taking the client’s experience seriously, helping people feel understood while they sort through what is hurting and what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and it can be especially helpful when anxiety, depression, or stress patterns feel stuck. She also incorporates Solution-Focused Therapy, which highlights strengths and builds clear next steps, supporting progress through small, realistic changes that fit the client’s goals.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Susan works collaboratively with clients to understand what they are facing, what they want from therapy, and what style of support feels most helpful. As goals become clearer over time, the work can adapt to match the client’s needs and preferences.
