About Susan

Susan Jamieson is an LCSW with 12 years of experience based in Arkansas. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, grief, parenting challenges, career concerns, bipolar issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem problems, and major life changes.

She focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Sessions are paced to the client and centered on what the person wants to change. She offers direction and support while letting the client decide how fast to move.

Her background combines professional training and real-world experience. That mix shapes how she chooses tools from different approaches. She adapts strategies to a person’s preferences and personality instead of using a single fixed method.

In sessions she helps people identify concrete patterns that keep problems going. Then she works with them to test new responses and build small skills they can use between meetings. Expect straightforward techniques for managing emotions and handling difficult conversations.

Susan describes therapy as a collaborative effort. She guides planning and progress but lets clients set the pace. To get started she asks people to select an online therapy option and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How Susan uses therapeutic approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that reflect what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and grounding skills people can use to reduce reactivity and tolerate strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review goals, past attempts, and personal preferences and then recommend strategies to try. Clients can give feedback and adjust the plan as they learn which tools help the most.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about session length and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions can be arranged to suit day-to-day life.
