About Susanna
Susanna White is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 20 years of experience. She works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression. Sessions are conducted in English and German and aim to address common mood and interpersonal difficulties.
She uses practical, structured methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on clear steps a person can try between meetings. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches to shape sessions based on what the person wants to work on.
In early meetings she helps people clarify priorities and pick a few manageable goals. Work often includes noticing patterns that increase distress, testing different responses, and practicing new behaviors. Conversations are straightforward and oriented toward problem solving rather than long theoretical explanations.
Susanna also brings experience addressing issues that often occur alongside mood disorders, such as communication problems, divorce and separation, blended family concerns, and first responder stress. She has worked with people impacted by sexual assault, self-harm urges, and panic attacks, and with those navigating multicultural issues or guilt and shame.
Her approach is practical and skills-focused. People who prefer structured sessions with clear strategies and short exercises between meetings may find this style helpful. Prospective clients should confirm session options and scheduling details before booking.
How CBT, ACT, and client-centered work translate to online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework tasks to try between meetings, which helps track what changes reduce symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values. In online ACT work clients practice brief mindfulness exercises and value-based goal setting to manage stress and mood. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person’s concerns and priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting to clarify what matters most.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods to use based on goals, symptoms, and what the person prefers. Sessions may shift focus over time as needs change and skills are practiced.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, shorten some check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also supports exercises that use written worksheets, brief recorded mindfulness practices, and step-by-step behavior experiments that can be done between sessions. Discuss format preferences when scheduling to match sessions to everyday life.
