About Sue-Jacqueline
Sue-Jacqueline Spencer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 17 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes, including challenges common to blended family situations.
Sue-Jacqueline uses straightforward conversation to help people name problems and find workable steps forward. She focuses on clearer communication, managing difficult emotions, and practical coping strategies. Sessions are paced to fit what each person needs that week.
Her style draws on client-centered principles that keep the person’s perspective central. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking, and Mindfulness techniques to steady attention and reduce overwhelm. Narrative therapy helps people reframe painful stories about themselves.
Clients can expect help with issues such as attachment struggles, codependency, body image concerns, caregiver stress, and the strain of blending households. She also addresses long-term effects of abandonment, adoption or foster care histories, and co-occurring problems that complicate recovery.
In practical work she looks for small, testable changes - a different way of speaking in a tense conversation, a short mindfulness practice, or a behavioral experiment to weaken a persistent fear. The goal is clearer choices and fewer days dominated by anxiety or stuckness.

How Sue-Jacqueline applies therapeutic methods in online sessions
Sue-Jacqueline combines client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in practical ways. Client-centered work means the conversation starts with what matters to the person and builds goals from there. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thoughts that fuel anxiety or depression and testing small behavior changes to weaken them. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and increase calm.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and what feels doable. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to one single path at the outset.
Confirm the therapist's current online session options before booking, since the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or have shorter check-ins when time is limited. It can also allow for steady practice of skills between meetings and quicker scheduling when life becomes hectic.
