About Susan
Susan Ramsey-French is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with eight years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship and family issues, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.
Susan uses straightforward talk and practical tools. She draws on client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and EMDR for trauma work. Sessions often include mindfulness skills and motivational interviewing to help people make changes that stick.
Her work addresses a wide range of concerns, including abandonment and attachment issues, blended family and communication problems, codependency and control issues, and responses to disaster. She also supports people dealing with dissociation, domestic violence, emptiness, body image, and co-morbid mental health conditions.
Susan favors short, clear steps and measurable goals when appropriate. Conversations can include learning coping skills for panic or anxiety, practicing thought-challenging techniques, and using EMDR protocols when trauma-focused processing is indicated. She explains each option and helps clients choose what feels useful.
The approach is practical and recovery-oriented. Sessions aim to build skills for everyday life, reduce distressing symptoms, and improve relationships. To start, people are encouraged to use the site’s matching process and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s concerns and priorities. In practice this means the therapist listens, reflects what matters, and helps set goals that fit daily life. It is useful for relationship strain, low mood, and stress-related problems.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Sessions include practicing thought records, behavior experiments, and problem-solving to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories. When appropriate, EMDR sessions move through structured phases to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and the reactions they trigger.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review your situation and goals, explain options, and collaborate on which methods to try first. This is a shared process and can change over time based on what helps.
Confirm current session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, require less travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Discussing preferences ahead of the first session helps plan the pacing and practical side of care.
