About Susan
Dr. Sult uses a mix of time-tested methods to guide therapy sessions. She draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Dialectical behavior strategies are used to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Emotionally-focused work addresses relationship and attachment patterns that show up in close relationships.
With 35 years in the field, she has worked with many presentations, including trauma, grief, eating and sleep concerns, chronic illness, and attentional problems. She frames therapy as a partnership and explains techniques clearly so clients understand why they are trying a particular strategy. Sessions move between talking, skill practice, and setting manageable goals.
Her counseling also covers relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, work and career strain, and identity concerns related to LGBT experiences. She pays attention to the ways life transitions affect mood, behavior, and daily functioning.
Outside her clinical work she enjoys horseback riding, quilting, and cooking. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How therapy approaches shape online care
Dr. Sult commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying patterns of unhelpful thinking and testing new ways of responding, which can help with anxiety, depression, and many daily stressors. Dialectical behavior therapy teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will listen to your goals and challenges, then recommend and try methods that fit your situation. You and the therapist decide together which techniques to use and how to adapt them over time.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing brief check-ins during a lunch break, or offering sessions that don’t require being on camera. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively at a distance while still focusing on skill practice, problem-solving, and relationship patterns.
