Susan Scott

Susan Scott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on listening carefully and shaping sessions around each person's needs. Her approach is down-to-earth and practical, geared toward helping people manage relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions.

She uses client-centered work to build trust and to help people feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is offered to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when managing intense emotions and impulsivity.

Susan also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) ideas when people want to repair connection and improve communication. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and needs momentum to make changes. These methods are mixed to match each person's goals rather than applied the same way to everyone.

Her background includes helping people with parenting stress, blended family issues, caregiver strain, and workplace difficulties. She works with concerns such as depression, compassion fatigue, grief after separation, jealousy, and problems with forgiveness and self-love.

Sessions are framed as collaborative conversations where practical coping skills and real-life problem solving are emphasized. People leaving sessions often have short-term tools to try between meetings and a clear plan for next steps.

How Susan's Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation. It helps people feel heard and guides goal-setting based on what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical exercises to change them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions and handling impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as progress is made.
