About Susan

Dr. Susan Wise is a licensed professional counselor with 16 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and relationship strains. She also supports clients facing parenting stress, sleep problems, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related challenges.

Her approach is warm and respectful, and she aims to make the first steps feel safer. She works by listening first and tailoring each conversation to what the person needs. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding how past experiences shape current reactions.

Background and approach

Dr. Wise draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds affect trust and closeness, and she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map patterns that keep problems repeating. She also brings Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people live by their values, and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy for managing intense emotions.

Client-Centered Therapy shapes the way she meets people - with respect and without judgment. These methods are mixed to fit each person rather than applied the same way to everyone. Her work extends to less common concerns like hoarding, jealousy, hospice and end-of-life counseling, veteran and armed forces issues, and multicultural questions.

Dr. Wise will work with international clients and can communicate in English and Esperanto. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

She helps people set clear goals and check progress so therapy stays focused and practical.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current trust and closeness. Online sessions can use this focus to help people notice patterns in their relationships and practice new ways of connecting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people accept difficult thoughts and commit to actions that match their values; it works well for anxiety, stress, and life changes and suits short exercises and homework between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with practical alternatives, making it useful for depression, anxiety, and sleep problems, and it adapts easily to video or written exercises.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit the person's goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities. That shared process means techniques can be adjusted over time if something isn't helping.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat for quicker check-ins, and text messaging for short reflections or notes between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support regular tracking of progress, and allow different formats for different tasks like skills practice, crisis coping, or values-based planning.
