About Susana
Susana Deltoro is a Licensed Professional Counselor who speaks English and Spanish. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, intimacy issues, parenting concerns, and relationship and family challenges. She also helps with career strain, sleep problems, anger, and life transitions like midlife change or immigration stress.
Susana draws on an 11-year career in counseling. She earned a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling and completed a graduate internship working with women facing co-occurring disorders and addiction.
Background and approach
That work included facilitating group therapy at both intensive and outpatient levels. Her style is down-to-earth and person-centered. Sessions tend to focus on the client's strengths and practical steps they can try between appointments.
She uses clear language and collaborative goal-setting rather than clinical jargon. In practice Susana combines several methods to match what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck and want to build motivation for change. Mindfulness-based techniques can be used to manage stress and improve focus. She pays attention to cultural and life circumstances that shape problems, including blended family challenges, caregiver stress, codependency, and financial worries.
Susana aims to help people find realistic ways to cope, repair communication, and regain a sense of purpose in daily life.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and helping people identify their own goals. It emphasizes empathy and respect while clients decide what changes matter most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or sleep trouble. It often includes simple exercises to practice between sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, life situation, and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Plans are adjusted over time so the approach fits what actually helps.
Online therapy offers flexibility through multiple formats: video calls for live conversation, phone sessions when video is difficult, and live chat or text messaging for brief check-ins or written reflection. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, manage ongoing care, and keep continuity during life transitions.
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.
Existential Therapy
Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
