About Suzanne
Suzanne Sztul is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, grief, and self-esteem. She speaks English and brings three years of documented clinical experience to her practice.

She has worked with older adults and their families, helping navigate the aging process and the practical and emotional issues that come with it.
Background and approach
Suzanne helps people sort through care decisions, communication breakdowns, and changes in roles that often accompany later life. Her work includes attention to compassion fatigue and isolation that can affect family members and caregivers. Suzanne’s style centers on building resilience and self-compassion.
She focuses on clear communication strategies and support for self-care. Sessions tend to be collaborative and down-to-earth, with concrete tools and small steps to try between appointments. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania and a Pennsylvania LCSW license (PA LCSW CW019461).
Suzanne aims to meet people where they are and to work at a pace that fits each person’s life and responsibilities. Therapy with Suzanne can address guilt, shame, social anxiety, and strained family communication. She also supports people dealing with grief and the emotional impact of aging and caregiving.
The tone in sessions is practical, steady, and empathetic.
Approaches for family, caregiving, and everyday stress
Two helpful approaches Suzanne uses are practical skills-based work and supportive problem-solving. Skills-based work teaches specific tools for managing anxiety, stress, and overwhelm, such as grounding techniques, simple routines, and ways to shift unhelpful thoughts. This can help when daily pressures or caregiving tasks feel like too much.Supportive problem-solving focuses on clear steps for resolving communication breakdowns and logistical issues that often come up in family and aging situations. It involves outlining options, weighing pros and cons, and practicing next-step conversations so decisions feel more manageable.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Suzanne partners with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts plans over time based on what is helping and what needs to change.
Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions around caregiving duties, school, or work. The mix of live conversations and messaging also lets people use brief check-ins or longer talks depending on what they need that week.
