About Susanna
Susanna White is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 20 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression. Her work also addresses related concerns such as communication problems, panic attacks, and the aftereffects of sexual assault and abuse.
She keeps sessions direct and practical. Susanna encourages people to talk about what is happening and to name the feelings behind their reactions. She helps clients notice patterns that increase tension and tries simple, useful steps to change those patterns.
In sessions she uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. That mix is used to help people manage difficult moods, reduce impulsive reactions, and rebuild trust in close relationships.
Her practice also pays attention to life circumstances that complicate problems, including blended family concerns, divorce and separation, first responder issues, and multicultural factors. Susanna speaks English and German and brings two decades of practice to each conversation.
People who choose her often want straightforward tools for handling anger and stress. She asks questions, listens for patterns, and works with clients to try new ways of responding to pressure and conflict.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about clarifying values and learning small actions that match those values, which can help when anger or avoidance get in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with behavior changes to reduce anxiety and reactivity. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to notice rising tension and choose a different response instead of reacting automatically.Choosing an approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working together. That decision is collaborative - methods can be tried and adjusted based on what helps most in real life.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, shorten travel time, and let someone attend from a quieter setting. They also allow for shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. If you have questions about how sessions will be scheduled or conducted, mention them in the matching questionnaire before your first appointment.
