About Susan

Susan Mullen is an LPC with 18 years of experience offering practical, person-focused therapy. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strains, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She aims to make sessions straightforward and useful for everyday life.

Susan helps clients tackle specific problems like grief, career uncertainty, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with communication problems and caregiver stress. Her practice includes work with autism spectrum conditions and intellectual disability when those issues are part of a person's story.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions are a place to talk through what matters, try concrete coping strategies, and figure out next steps. She listens first and tailors tools to the person in front of her.

Susan draws on methods that help people change habits, test new ways of thinking, and focus on values and goals. She offers guidance and coaching alongside traditional therapy work to help people make progress between sessions.

People who want clear, practical support often choose her when they need help getting unstuck. She works from Colorado and communicates in English. International clients are accepted, and she uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

Step 3

How Susan's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard, clarify goals, and build confidence to make changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical steps to test and change unhelpful patterns.

Picking the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

The practical benefits of remote therapy are about fitting care into daily life. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular appointments, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Licensed professionals can use remote work to focus on skills practice, problem-solving, and planning between sessions, helping clients apply what they learn to real situations.
