About Susana
Susana Deltoro is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas with 11 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem struggles, depression, anger, and other life changes. Susana is bilingual in English and Spanish and notes experience supporting LGBT and intimacy-related issues among other areas.
She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, graduating magna cum laude, and a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Southwest. Her clinical internship focused on co-occurring disorders in women and families at a Houston shelter where she led group therapy for intensive and outpatient programs. That experience shapes how she approaches complex emotional and behavioral concerns.
In sessions she draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and elements of Existential and Mindfulness approaches. She uses clear, practical techniques to address thoughts, feelings, and actions that keep problems going. Sessions may include skill building, guided reflection, and short-term plans to test different ways of responding.
Susana also lists attention to blended family issues, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, immigration concerns, and midlife questions. She frames work around strengths and real-life steps rather than abstract theories. Her background includes hands-on group work with people managing addiction and co-occurring conditions.
People meet her when they want straightforward help with anger, coping, relationships, or transitions. To begin she asks about current struggles and what the client most wants to change, then they set practical next steps together.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify values and make their own decisions rather than following a therapist's script. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, anger, and low mood. Motivational Interviewing is a short, goal-focused method that helps people resolve mixed feelings and find reasons to make changes they actually want to try.Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and adjust the approach based on what helps most. That collaborative process makes it easier to test new responses to anger, relationship strain, or life transitions.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten check-ins when time is limited, or use audio-only meetings when bandwidth is low. Licensed professionals can also use exercises, worksheets, and brief between-session tasks to keep progress moving without requiring long weekly appointments.
