Susana Deltoro

Susana Deltoro is an English-Spanish Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, relationship struggles, and parenting concerns. She also supports those facing depression, self-esteem issues, intimacy questions, sleep problems, and career or life-change challenges. Susana takes a person-centered, strength-based approach. Sessions focus on what matters to each person and build practical steps forward. She draws on evidence-based tools to help clients change patterns, manage emotions, and clarify values. Her training includes a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Southwest. She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. During her master’s internship she worked at Santa Maria Hostel in Houston, Texas, focusing on co-occurring disorders in women and family-involved care. In practice she has led group work at both intensive and outpatient levels, supporting people affected by addiction and co-occurring conditions. That work shaped her interest in helping people reconnect with supports and develop steady coping skills. Therapeutic methods commonly used include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness practices, and client-centered techniques. Susana aims to work collaboratively to find what fits each person’s life and goals. She provides services in English and Spanish from her Texas practice.

How Susana’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-centered work focuses on the person's concerns, goals, and strengths. Online sessions using this approach center what matters most to the client and adapt tools to everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it often includes specific exercises and short practice tasks between sessions to reduce symptoms such as anxiety or anger. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck or ambivalent about change by clarifying values and building motivation in small steps. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Susana works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a client's goals and preferences. She adjusts methods over time based on what is helping and what the person wants to focus on. Please confirm available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help many people maintain momentum between sessions and apply new skills in daily life.
