Approaches Susan Mount Uses in Online Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on the ways early relationships shape current emotional patterns. It helps clients explore how past attachments influence present connections and offers tools to build more secure, trusting relationships, which can be especially helpful for people dealing with attachment issues, trauma, or intimacy concerns.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client’s experience and emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaborative understanding. The therapist follows the client’s lead to create a supportive environment for self-exploration, useful for people facing grief, low self-esteem, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to reframe unhelpful thinking and develop healthier coping skills. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier for clients to access licensed professionals from different locations. These options support consistent scheduling, allow sessions to fit into busy lives, and make ongoing care more accessible for people balancing family, work, or other responsibilities.
