About Susanna
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about hard feelings. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than long lectures. The tone is warm and direct so parents and busy adults can get to the point quickly.
In sessions she draws on methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to spot unhelpful patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to help people notice values and take small, values-based actions. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Susanna has worked across many common life challenges. These include depression, bipolar disorder, panic and anxiety, anger, communication problems, and issues tied to separation or infidelity. She also supports people facing autism-related concerns, blended family stress, first responder issues, and multicultural concerns.
People who prefer straightforward guidance and practical tools tend to do well in her office. She encourages clear goals, honest conversation, and ongoing review of progress. The focus is on building habits and decisions that lead to more manageable daily life.

How her approaches are used in online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps that align with those values, even when strong emotions are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change them. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist consults with each person about goals and preferences and recommends techniques that fit those aims. Clients and therapist review what helps and adjust the plan over time in a collaborative way.
Confirm session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, and offering sessions during breaks or after work. These practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while balancing family, school, and jobs.
