About Susan

Susan Dice is a licensed social worker in Michigan with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Susan treats concerns like addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue.

She offers straightforward support for relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting worries, and career strain. Susan approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on.

Background and approach

Sessions are aimed at small, manageable steps rather than dramatic overhauls. She frames progress as steady work, not instant fixes. In sessions she listens first, then suggests techniques that fit each person's situation.

That may include tools to manage overwhelming feelings, ways to rebuild confidence, or methods to handle major life changes. She keeps language plain and practical so parents and busy people can use ideas between appointments. Susan uses flexible communication methods to fit different schedules and comfort levels.

She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging as ways to stay connected. This variety helps people keep therapy consistent even when life is hectic. People who want focused, actionable support around parenting stress, relationships, or work troubles often find this approach helpful.

Her practice centers on steady progress, clear skills, and working together to meet each person's goals.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life

Many clients benefit from techniques that teach specific skills. One common approach Susan uses is skills-based work to manage anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and thought-restructuring that people can practice between sessions. These methods help when worry or panic gets in the way of daily life.

Another focus is strength-oriented coaching to rebuild self-esteem and coping after big life changes. This involves identifying what already works in a person's life and building tasks that increase confidence and resilience over time. That kind of work is useful for parenting stress, career shifts, and recovery from grief or trauma.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Susan will listen to goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. She works together with each person to find practical tools that match their needs and schedule.

Online therapy offers flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people connect face to face, phone sessions allow audio-only conversations, and live chat or text messaging provide shorter check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent when schedules or responsibilities change.
