Sue Daniel, LMSW

Sue Daniel is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with three decades of practice supporting people through grief, caregiver stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She helps with relationship and communication problems, parenting strain, career shifts, and the isolation that can come with aging and geriatric issues. Her approach is calm and practical, aimed at making day-to-day coping feel more manageable.

Sue draws on a variety of methods rather than one fixed theory. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's lead and build trust. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when strong emotions and bonding issues are at the heart of a problem. Mindfulness techniques are used to reduce stress and gently shift unhelpful thought patterns.

Sue's background includes work in nursing homes, hospice and home care, senior housing, and care management through an Area Agency on Aging. That experience informs how she talks about aging, end-of-life concerns, and caregiver burden. She blends counseling, practical education, and problem-solving in sessions.

Sessions aim to meet the person where they are and move forward together at a comfortable pace. Sue communicates regularly during business days and asks for patience when replies take longer due to other responsibilities.

She practices from Michigan and brings long-term experience to conversations about bereavement, hospice-related decisions, and the stress of caregiving. Clients can expect straightforward guidance, attention to real-life needs, and strategies they can try between meetings.

How her approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the client's concerns and priorities. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the person decide next steps that make sense for their life. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at attachment and strong emotions in relationships; it helps when sorrow, loss, or connection issues are central. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to reduce stress and notice thoughts without judgment, which can help with anxiety, depression, and caregiver overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sue treats this as a collaborative process where goals, preferences, and how a person responds to techniques guide which methods are used. She will check in and adjust the plan if something is not helping or if priorities change over time.

Session logistics are not specified in the biography, so confirm available formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and follow up from home when energy is low. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and ways to practice mindfulness and emotion-focused exercises between meetings. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and techniques to match everyday life and current responsibilities.
