About Susan

Susan Brown is a licensed psychologist with registrations in Pennsylvania and Florida. She brings 20 years of clinical experience and organizational work to sessions. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, career concerns, eating and family-related issues.

Her style is practical and straightforward, aimed at people who want clear strategies and steady support. Susan blends talk therapy with skill-building. She often uses cognitive behavioral approaches and client-centered methods to help people shift thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.

Background and approach

Mindfulness and motivational interviewing appear in her work when clients want tools for emotion regulation or to increase motivation for change. She has deep experience addressing body image and eating concerns. She helps people untangle how self-worth and appearance expectations affect daily life.

For those who grew up in homes with substance misuse, she offers focused support to understand coping habits and build closer, more satisfying relationships. Susan also assists parents who are trying to manage shifting relationships with adolescents. She teaches concrete skills such as listening, negotiating, planning, and goal setting so family interactions become clearer and less tense.

Her Life Skills Coaching approach turns therapeutic goals into observable practices that families can use at home. Sessions combine practical exercises, clear feedback, and collaborative problem solving. She aims to create a predictable process so clients know what to expect and can track progress.

Work with her is geared toward results you can see and use day to day.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Susan draws heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to change feelings and behavior; it often helps with anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so people feel heard and can explore goals at their own pace.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods over time. Clients help shape the plan so techniques match their needs and preferences rather than following a fixed script.

Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options let people work between appointments with brief messages or use live conversation when deeper work is needed. The combination of clear methods and flexible session types supports steady progress even when schedules are tight.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
