About Susan
Dr. Susan Sult is a Florida Psychologist (FL Psychologist PY3854) with 35 years of experience. She works with adults on problems like anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and family concerns, and blended family issues. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps people can try between appointments.
She uses straightforward, skills-based methods such as cognitive-behavioral work to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy strategies for managing strong emotions and Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas for understanding relationship patterns. Mindfulness and solution-focused tools are used to build coping skills and short-term progress.
In a typical session she helps people name the problem, set a small goal, and practice techniques aimed at that goal. Expect concrete suggestions for handling conflict, managing stress, and improving communication. She discusses what methods she plans to try and why, so clients can weigh options and give feedback.
Her long career includes work with trauma, grief, chronic health concerns, attentional problems, and sexual culture topics such as BDSM and kink. She also addresses parenting strain, stepfamily transitions, and intimacy-related issues that come up when households merge. When relevant she outlines strategies for mood, sleep, eating, and addictive behaviors.
Outside of clinical work she enjoys horseback riding, quilting, and cooking. To begin, the site asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Approaches used in online sessions
She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, with practical exercises and skill practice that help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and mood regulation. DBT emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can help when conflicts or overwhelming feelings arise.She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to look at how people respond to relationship stress and to help clarify attachment-related patterns. Those ideas are useful for addressing intimacy-related concerns and communication problems in merged households. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work; she will discuss options and decide together which approaches best fit the client's goals and preferences.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let someone join without travel time. Therapists typically adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so skills can be practiced between meetings.
