About Susan
Susan Garon is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 20 years of clinical experience. She is licensed in Florida and Kentucky and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, and self-esteem concerns. Susan uses a straightforward, respectful approach that listens first and then responds.
She adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit each person's situation. Sessions aim to be practical and compassionate so people can take small, useful steps forward.
Background and approach
Her background includes several therapeutic influences that shape how she works. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address patterns in close relationships and attachment. She also uses client-centered methods to keep the client's perspective central, and cognitive behavioral strategies to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Susan has worked with many life changes across two decades, including adoption and foster care concerns, aging and geriatric issues, blended family stress, and challenges related to divorce or separation. She also supports people dealing with isolation, guilt, or finding purpose later in life. Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled to fit different needs.
Susan aims to create a collaborative space where people can talk through practical problems, process emotions, and build better coping skills.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and change negative interaction patterns and strengthen emotional bonds. It is often useful when relationship patterns or attachment concerns make people feel stuck.Client-Centered Therapy centers the individual's experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and follows the client's lead to build clarity and self-awareness.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete tools to test and change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits that reduce anxiety and improve coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Susan will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts techniques as progress is made. This collaborative process helps match what is done in sessions to the person's real-life needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people maintain face-to-face contact while saving travel time. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, immediate coping tools, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue consistent care.
