About Susan
Susan Haynes-Carabello is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of experience helping people who face stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She focuses on practical steps people can use to feel steadier and more confident in day-to-day life. Her work aims to reduce overwhelming feelings and find clearer direction when life feels stuck.
Susan uses approaches such as Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to shape sessions.
Background and approach
She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through painful memories and everyday struggles. Sessions often include skill-building for emotion regulation, thought patterns, and small behavior changes that add up over time. Her background includes a master’s-level education in clinical psychology and many years of continued study in areas like trauma, self-esteem, motivation, and mind-body approaches.
She draws on that breadth to offer several ways of working depending on each person’s needs. The focus is on practical tools and clearer thinking rather than jargon. Susan describes therapy as a collaborative process.
She helps clients spot limiting beliefs and practice new habits that support their goals. Over time many people report feeling more able to cope, make decisions, and connect with what matters to them. Sessions are offered in English and available to people in Florida and internationally.
Formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

Online support
How emotion work and practical techniques translate online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong feelings. It focuses on understanding patterns in emotional experience and shifting how people respond to fears and needs, which can reduce relationship to old hurts and increase emotional balance. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities, offering a respectful, listening-based space where a person’s own goals guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors together and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns and manage symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Choosing an approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative planning means techniques can be mixed or shifted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video suits more in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not preferred. Live chat and text are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep therapy going around work, caregiving, or travel.
