About Susanne

Susanne Sogar is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who aims to make therapy practical and hopeful. She describes counseling as a first step toward change and helps people who are feeling anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed to start moving forward. Susanne speaks English and German and brings five years of clinical experience to her work.

She focuses on building a trusting relationship first. That gives space to notice strengths that clients may not yet see. Susanne then helps people choose small, practical steps that fit their life and goals. Her approach is goal-oriented and encourages steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Susanne uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing alongside solution-focused and trauma-focused work. She explains approaches in plain terms and matches techniques to the issue at hand, whether stress, grief, anger, relationship strain, or changes in life circumstances.

Having lived in multiple countries and grown up in Germany, she pays attention to cultural and spiritual identity in sessions. That background informs how she listens and respects different perspectives on meaning and values.

Practical matters are straightforward: sessions are arranged by completing the Start Therapy button and a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling follows the therapist's availability and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Anger and Trauma Work

Susanne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new, more effective behaviors. CBT often focuses on small experiments and practical skills you can use between sessions to reduce stress and anger.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address distress from past painful events. EMDR aims to reduce the intensity of difficult memories and the strong emotions tied to them, which can help with trauma, grief, and long-standing anger reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences, then suggest methods that fit. This collaborative process lets techniques change as needs evolve.

If you prefer online care, confirm the session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce time spent traveling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss scheduling and the practical details during the matching and scheduling steps so sessions align with daily life and goals.
