About Susan
Susan Henry is a licensed social worker with 25 years of clinical experience. She works from Minnesota and brings a calm, straightforward approach to people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and major life changes.

Her style is warm and person-centered. She focuses on understanding how attachment patterns and past relationships shape current feelings. Sessions tend to be conversational, with attention to concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Susan blends several evidence-informed approaches to match each person's needs. That can mean learning grounding and distress-tolerance skills, practicing new ways to communicate, or clarifying values and goals. She encourages self-compassion while challenging habits that get in the way of growth.
She has worked with people facing a wide range of concerns, including addiction, mood differences, parenting stress, identity and intimacy questions, chronic illness, and workplace strain. Her aim is to make progress feel manageable rather than overwhelming. Sessions are intended to be a collaborative process.
Susan helps people set realistic steps, track small wins, and adjust strategies when life changes. The emphasis is on usable tools, clearer relationships, and steadier coping. People who prefer a respectful, nonjudgmental therapist who explains techniques plainly may find her approach useful.
Susan offers therapy in English and brings years of experience to clients ready to work on practical change.

Online support
How attachment work and skill-based therapies translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings and behavior. Online sessions can be used to notice those patterns, practice new ways of relating, and build more supported ways of connecting with others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take action toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It is useful for anxiety, life transitions, and making behavioral changes.Susan treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She discusses goals and preferences and combines elements of attachment work, ACT, and client-centered techniques to fit each person. Together the therapist and client try methods, see what helps, and adjust the plan based on results and changing needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These formats make it simpler to continue work during life transitions, handle brief crises, or fit sessions into a workday without long commutes.
