About Suzie

Suzie Braddock is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 20 years of clinical experience in Oklahoma. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, and relationship issues. She views each person as the expert on their own story and works alongside them to move toward healthier patterns.

Seeking help is a brave step, and she aims to offer steady support as people start change. Her approach is direct and practical.

Background and approach

She uses methods that help people notice what matters, change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and build skills for strong emotional regulation. Sessions often include brief exercises, real-life strategies, and mindfulness practices you can use at home. The work is collaborative - goals are set together and adjusted as progress is made.

Suzie has worked with a wide range of concerns people bring to therapy, including parenting strains, family conflict, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related struggles, and workplace stress. She also addresses issues like ADHD symptoms, panic attacks, postpartum depression, and compassion fatigue. Her experience includes supporting people dealing with grief, eating and sleeping problems, and young adult transitions.

In sessions she emphasizes strengths and practical steps. She helps clients identify small, doable changes that ease daily stress and improve relationships. Over time those changes add up and create more room for priorities and well-being.

She offers a calm, straightforward style that suits people who want clear tools and steady encouragement. For parents and those concerned about family dynamics, her work aims to reduce conflict and increase connection using concrete strategies.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and commit to actions that match those values. It often includes simple exercises to notice thoughts without getting pulled into them, which can help with anxiety, stress, and parenting choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses practical strategies and homework to reduce symptoms like panic, depression, or sleep problems and to improve daily routines and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend and adjust methods together. That collaborative process helps match tools to the problem at hand and keeps the work relevant to your family and parenting concerns.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, or caregiving responsibilities and allow for ongoing support between meetings. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, assign short practices, and track progress while making therapy more accessible to busy families.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
