About Susan

Susan Toth is a licensed social worker (LISW-CP) practicing in South Carolina. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, substance concerns, and major life changes. Her work often focuses on practical steps clients can use right away to feel steadier and more in control.

Susan takes a collaborative, client-centered approach. Sessions focus on what each person needs most, whether that means improving communication, managing strong emotions, or coping through a life transition. She uses straightforward strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to change unhelpful patterns and build new habits.

Her background includes 16 years of clinical experience supporting people through trauma, caregiving strain, and difficult separations. She also addresses issues such as attachment concerns, codependency, infertility stress, and work-related burnout. Susan aims to help clients reduce isolation and restore a clearer sense of purpose.

In sessions she blends short-term solution-focused work with longer-term attention to underlying patterns. That can look like setting small goals between visits, practicing mindful skills, and tracking what helps in daily life. The pace is set with each client’s needs in mind.

Susan emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere. She invites open conversation about what is and isn’t working, and she adjusts tools and goals as people progress. Her approach is practical and grounded, aimed at steady, sustainable change.

How her approaches guide online care

Susan uses client-centered therapy to build a trusting, respectful working relationship. This approach means sessions focus on the client’s goals and pace, and the therapist follows the person’s lead to understand what matters most.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and patterns that keep people stuck by teaching specific skills and small experiments to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, then recommend whether more solution-focused work, mindful practices, or CBT strategies make the most sense. This is a collaborative decision and can change over time as progress is made.

Please confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people continue care when schedules or locations change. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when a quick adjustment is needed, or for longer sessions when a deeper conversation is helpful.
