About Susan

Susan Reimers welcomes people who are looking for help with stress, anxiety, depression, or questions about identity and self-worth. She emphasizes practical steps that fit into daily life and respects each person as the expert on their own experience. Susan is a LICSW and works from a strengths-based perspective to help people move past barriers and find clearer direction.

She has eight years of professional experience practicing in Washington. Over that time she has focused on work related and personal stress, LGBTQ concerns, motivation, and confidence. She also supports people dealing with gender transition experiences and the effects of religious trauma.

Susan uses approaches grounded in research to guide sessions. She blends short-term skill work with active listening and motivational interviewing so people can set goals and try changes between meetings. Conversations often focus on practical tools for managing worry, improving mood, and handling workplace strain.

Sessions are collaborative and centered on the client’s priorities. Susan helps people identify strengths, test new behaviors, and notice what changes help over time. She encourages small steps that build momentum and make everyday life more manageable.

Clients who prefer English-language work will find Susan offers services in English and accepts international clients. Before scheduling, confirm the current session options so they match your needs and routine.

Evidence-based approaches and how they work online

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. It is practical and often includes exercises to try between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment approaches help people notice difficult feelings without getting stuck and move toward values-based goals. This can be useful for coping with life changes, workplace stress, and identity concerns.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and everyday routines. Sessions may shift over time as priorities change and new experiments are tried.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are supported. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on hectic days. Some formats can also be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a session needs to be brief to fit a lunch break. Licensed professionals use online work to deliver the same goal-focused techniques used in person while adapting them to each person's life.
