About Susan
Susan Nimrod is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC, practicing in Kansas with 30 years of experience. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, sleeping problems, career pressure, and anger. Her approach is straightforward and goal-focused to make reaching out feel less awkward.
She trained at the University of Kansas where she earned a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology. She has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings and now provides outpatient therapy in private practice. That range gives her familiarity with different kinds of struggles and treatment settings.
Susan uses cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She blends that with attention to body sensations and everyday routines. Sessions tend to focus on concrete steps and small experiments that can be tried between meetings.
In sessions she aims for a relaxed, non-judgmental working relationship with clear goals. Conversations usually move from identifying patterns to practicing alternative responses. For anger, that can mean noticing triggers, testing new reactions, and building better communication skills.
Her background includes work with adults, children, couples, and families, and she has experience with issues across the lifespan such as aging concerns, fertility and pregnancy-related issues, cancer, and midlife transitions. If someone is unsure about the fit, she suggests an initial conversation to see how her practical style matches their needs.
How CBT shapes online sessions and what to expect
Susan uses cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, stress, anger, sleep problems, and relationship patterns. It often includes short homework tasks to practice skills between meetings.She also pays attention to the connection between body and mind, noticing how sensations, sleep, and routines affect mood and reactivity. That perspective helps when anger shows up as tension, restlessness, or sleeplessness and when small changes in daily habits make a difference.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose techniques that match their goals and preferences. That may mean adjusting the focus over time based on what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people practice communication skills in the middle of everyday life, then bring observations back to sessions for review.
