About Susan

Susan Brown is a licensed psychologist practicing in Pennsylvania and Florida. She has two decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and career concerns. She often works with women navigating the daily demands of life and with people facing body image and eating issues.

Her background combines clinical practice and organizational work, which she draws on to make sessions practical and focused. She uses talk therapy alongside structured methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered approaches. Conversations are aimed at clarifying goals, building skills, and reducing symptoms that interfere with daily functioning.

Susan often blends life skills coaching with therapy when clients need concrete tools. That can include goal-setting, planning, negotiation, and communication techniques to make home and work life more manageable. She describes these practices as straightforward, teachable skills clients can use between sessions.

She has particular experience supporting people with attachment and relationship concerns, communication problems, divorce and separation issues, and the emotional effects of trauma. She also works with panic symptoms, personality-related challenges, and workplace stresses.

Susan brings focused work on body image, eating-related difficulties, and the experience of adult children of alcoholics. Her approach is practical, collaborative, and aimed at helping people build clearer self-understanding and usable steps forward.

How key approaches guide online therapy

Susan integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness-based ideas into short, practical work. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing new ways of responding; it can help with anxiety, panic, and workplace stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and to bring steadier focus during stressful moments.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose methods and pace that fit the client’s needs, adjusting over time if something isn’t working.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can still make therapy easier to fit into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break, or make it simpler to meet when work or family schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and mindfulness practices to remote sessions so clients can practice tools between meetings and track progress over time.
