Dr. Susie Stubbs

Dr. Susie Stubbs is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland with 15 years of experience. She focuses on career concerns, stress, anxiety, and coaching for professionals. She also helps people navigate life changes and challenges like grief, trauma, addiction, and relationship or intimacy issues.

She starts from the view that each person knows their own story. Sessions center on the client’s goals and strengths. Conversations aim to make small, practical shifts that add up over time rather than rely on jargon or one-size-fits-all solutions.

Dr. Stubbs uses client-centered methods to create space for people to describe what matters most. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and to practice different ways of responding. Together these approaches inform a plan tailored to the person’s priorities, whether that is career direction, managing anxiety, or improving sleep and self-esteem.

Her work supports people dealing with mood concerns such as depression and bipolar symptoms, attention challenges like ADHD, compassion fatigue, and patterns of anger or disordered eating. She also assists those facing parenting stress and family conflict by focusing on individual coping and skill-building.

How client-centered and CBT methods translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and guiding clients to name their own goals. In practice this means sessions are driven by what the person wants to work on, whether that is career direction, relationship questions, or day-to-day coping.

Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot patterns in their thinking and behavior, then practice concrete alternatives. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, sleep and mood concerns, and for tackling things like unhelpful habits or worry that interferes with work and life.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative step. The therapist will talk with each person about what feels most relevant and may combine client-centered conversation with CBT techniques to match goals, preferences, and progress.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to check in on a break from work, maintain continuity through life changes, or practice skills between sessions. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to ensure the timing and setup will work for you.
