About Susie
Dr. Susie Stubbs is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maryland with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, career strain, relationship tension, and anger. She also sees people facing grief, trauma, substance use concerns, mood challenges, and parenting‑related stress.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice what is getting in the way. Sessions focus on concrete steps and clearer thinking rather than abstract theory. She treats each person as the expert on their life and draws on their strengths to find workable changes.
Dr. Stubbs uses Client‑Centered Therapy to build a respectful working relationship and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems active. In practice that looks like setting small goals, testing new behaviors between sessions, and reviewing what worked.
She also brings experience with professional and executive coaching, which clients often find helpful when stress or career issues feed into anger and frustration. The emphasis is practical - clearer decisions, better communication, and manageable coping skills.
People who choose her typically want direct, solution-focused conversation and tools they can try right away. To start, she asks about current challenges, what has been tried, and which changes would matter most now.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful, nonjudgmental listening and on building a working relationship. That approach helps people feel heard so they can talk through anger triggers and decide what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that fuel anger and introduces concrete exercises to test different responses. CBT is useful for work stress, impulsive reactions, and patterns that repeat in relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review your concerns, try methods that fit your goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where you and the therapist pick strategies together and track whether they change your reactions and mood.
