About Susan
Susan Henry is a licensed independent social worker with both an Iowa LISW and a Nevada LCSW and more than 25 years of practice. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and grief, and other life changes. Sessions are offered in English and she practices from Minnesota.
Susan focuses on practical problem-solving. She helps people notice patterns that cause distress, try new ways of handling difficult moments, and develop concrete coping skills. That can mean working on sleep and eating concerns, managing symptoms of depression or bipolar disorder, or addressing issues around addiction and substance use.
Her work includes support around parenting, intimacy-related worries, career pressures, and caregiver strain. She also addresses attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, body image, and challenges linked to chronic illness or caregiving. LGBT topics and commitment or codependency issues are part of her practice as well.
Susan draws on therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based methods, and Client-Centered approaches. In sessions she blends skills training with exploratory conversation to help people test solutions in daily life.

BHow sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions in line with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by shifting the focus from eliminating symptoms to building a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more workable responses. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, sleep and eating problems, and habits linked to addiction. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for intense emotions and relationship stress. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adapt methods based on goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying skills in session and adjusting them for everyday life. Confirm the session formats before booking to match your routine. The practical benefit of online work is that sessions can fit into work breaks, reduce travel time, and be scheduled more easily around family or caregiving responsibilities. If you need clarification about which session formats are offered, check the online options before you schedule.CAreas of focus
