How Susan Uses Therapeutic Tools Online
Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the center of the work and involves careful listening and reflection to help clients feel understood and seen. This approach is useful for people trying to make sense of mood shifts, stress, or questions about life direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It helps with anxiety, depression, and managing mood by teaching skills like thought tracking and behavioral experiments.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. It can be helpful when emotions feel intense or when someone needs clearer strategies to cope day to day.
Susan treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work together with each person to choose or blend methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.
