Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Susan draws on client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, empathetic relationship where clients lead the pace and topics of work; this approach is especially helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and managing stress and anxiety. She also integrates existential therapy to explore meaning, values, and life purpose, supporting people facing midlife questions, loss, or major life transitions. In addition, psychodynamic therapy is used to examine longer-standing patterns and unconscious influences that affect emotions and behavior, which can be useful for recurring relationship problems and unresolved grief.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the therapeutic process. Susan works together with each client to identify goals, preferences, and the methods that feel most helpful, adjusting the focus over time so the work matches the client’s needs. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy is relevant and responsive.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. These formats make it easier to access registered professionals from different locations, reduce travel time, and allow consistent contact during periods of change, while still supporting meaningful therapeutic work.
