About Susan
Susan Jacobsen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 28 years of experience. She centers her work on the person in front of her, using a client-centered approach to create a respectful, listening space. She emphasizes mindfulness and creative expression to help people notice what matters and find ways forward.
She focuses much of her practice on trauma, grief, and loss, including challenges around infant loss, miscarriage, and fertility. Her background includes work across varied mental health settings, and she brings both personal and professional insight to those fertility-related losses.
Susan often uses art materials alongside conversation to help people access emotions more directly. That visual, hands-on way of working can make difficult feelings easier to name and process. She also draws on mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns that keep people stuck.
Clients come to her for stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and family strain, and career or life-purpose questions. She also addresses burnout and compassion fatigue often seen in caregivers and first responder contexts.
Outside of therapy she spends time in nature with family, hiking, boating, camping, paddleboarding, and playing volleyball. She practices yoga and brings that calm attention into sessions when it fits the person’s needs and goals.
Approaches that guide online work and recovery
Client-centered therapy focuses on hearing each person without judgment and following their lead. It helps people feel understood and decide what change matters most to them. Jungian therapy attends to symbols, dreams, and inner stories to help people find meaning after loss or during big life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit your needs. Decisions about techniques and emphasis are made collaboratively, and adjustments happen as therapy progresses.
