About Susan
Dr. Susan Murati is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, practicing in New Hampshire with 19 years of experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and career concerns. She also addresses trauma, grief, addictions, intimacy-related issues, and workplace strain.
Her work is practical and interactive. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, learning new coping skills, and testing different ways of responding. She combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with acceptance and commitment therapy and client-centered conversation to address specific problems.
Dr. Murati draws on dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when emotion regulation or motivation is central to the concern. She also uses narrative approaches to help people make sense of their experiences and roles. These methods are used to help with things like panic attacks, social anxiety, and low self-esteem.
She pays attention to family of origin issues, communication problems, multicultural concerns, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination. Practical topics such as career direction, midlife transitions, and balancing caregiving or workplace responsibilities are included in sessions. Work often involves short skill-building exercises and concrete practice between meetings.
Her stated style is interactive and respectful. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How CBT and related approaches look in online sessions
Dr. Murati uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. CBT sessions typically involve setting clear goals, practicing skill-based exercises, and reviewing homework to see what works for daily life.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and accept difficult feelings while taking concrete steps toward meaningful goals. Client-Centered Therapy is used to keep conversations focused on the individual's experience and priorities, letting practical solutions emerge from the client's own concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Murati will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That may mean emphasizing CBT exercises for anxiety, using ACT when values and avoidance are central, or adding DBT skills for emotion regulation.
