About Susan
Dr. Susan Sult is a Florida psychologist with decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and everyday habits that get in the way of day-to-day life. She writes clearly about goals and practical steps, and she works with people who want straightforward, skills-based help for problems like sleep, eating, parenting stress, and attention difficulties.
She frames therapy as a partnership. Sessions focus on identifying small, realistic changes and practicing them between appointments. Her approach mixes evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques with solution-focused and emotionally aware work to help clients notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
Over 35 years in practice have included a wide range of concerns, from mood and anxiety to trauma, addictions, and relationship challenges. Her background also covers issues like chronic illness, grief, attachment and abandonment, and intimacy-related topics including kink and alternative sex culture.
In sessions she aims to explain techniques plainly and to teach skills clients can use outside the office. That can mean working on thought patterns, building routines, improving communication, or managing strong emotions with practical tools.
She sees therapy as collaborative and goal-oriented. Prospective clients who prefer clear plans and homework between sessions will likely find this approach helpful. To start, readers can use the site’s Start Therapy flow to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a time based on availability.

Approaches that shape online care and practical work
Many clients find cognitive behavioral approaches helpful because they focus on the links between thoughts, behaviors, and mood. CBT often involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or problems with sleep and eating.Dialectical behavior therapy offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. DBT-style skills can help with anger, impulse control, and situations where feelings feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will use a collaborative process to match techniques to each person's goals, needs, and preferences rather than imposing a single method.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when useful, and making it possible to schedule sessions around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT tools to virtual settings so clients practice skills, set small goals, and track progress between visits.
