Susan Morlock, LPC, LCPC

Susan Morlock is a licensed counselor with eight years of clinical practice and a long history in senior-level business roles. She brings together mental health work and real-world workplace experience to help people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or depression. Susan is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and practices in Vermont.

Susan focuses on performance-related anxiety such as public speaking, test-taking, and workplace performance. She also addresses general anxiety, obsessive thoughts and behaviors, mood struggles, and effects of past trauma. Sessions aim to reduce the everyday tug of worry so clients can get back to routine tasks with more ease.

Her approach blends evidence-based psychotherapy with attention to the nervous system and mind-body techniques. That means talking through thought patterns and practicing skills to manage physical reactions to stress. The work often includes learning practical tools for handling pressure and building steadier routines.

Susan’s business background helps her understand leadership stress and workplace demands. She uses that perspective when clients bring career concerns or burnout to sessions. Conversations are grounded, practical, and focused on immediate strategies that fit daily life.

People who reach out can expect a collaborative process. Susan helps clients identify specific goals, tries techniques that match those goals, and adjusts the plan based on what helps. Sessions are paced to each person’s needs and comfort level.

Approaches that address thoughts and body reactions online

Evidence-based psychotherapy here means using approaches that focus on thoughts, behaviors, and the body's response to stress. One commonly used approach is Acceptance and Commitment work, which helps people notice anxious thoughts, clarify what matters to them, and take small steps toward those values. It can be useful for career worries and performance anxiety.

Another approach Susan uses is cognitive-focused work that targets unhelpful thinking and compulsive behaviors. This kind of work breaks problems into manageable pieces and teaches concrete skills for reducing worry and repetitive rituals. Mind-body techniques are also part of the mix to help reduce physical tension during high-pressure moments.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit your needs, and adjust methods if something isn't helping. Clients work together with the therapist to decide what feels most useful and sustainable.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are set by the therapist's practice. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice coping tools between sessions in the settings where they live and work.
