About Susan

Susan Mount is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 22 years of clinical experience. She has worked in residential care, addiction treatment, orphanages, and school settings. Susan has supported many people after emotional and physical abuse and helped young adults facing low self-esteem, eating concerns, learning struggles, and depression.

Her style is warm and interactive. She focuses on strengths and practical steps people can use right away. Sessions are described as compassionate and steady, with an emphasis on helping clients notice what matters most to them.

Susan draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses client-centered techniques to keep the work focused on the person in front of her. Cognitive behavioral methods are used to identify unhelpful thinking and try small experiments in daily life.

She has spent much of her career helping parents improve communication with their children and supporting individuals through divorce, grief, and life transitions. Other areas she commonly addresses include anxiety, trauma, addiction, codependency, and relationship and intimacy concerns.

Susan approaches each person as an individual and works collaboratively to set goals. She encourages small, sustainable changes and supports clients as they test new ways of relating and coping. Her goal is to help people build clearer self-understanding and greater resilience.

How Susan’s Approaches Work Online

Susan uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current behavior and emotional patterns. This can help people understand recurring relationship problems, codependency, or reactions to loss and separation.

She also works in a client-centered way, which means sessions are guided by the person’s needs and goals. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients organize their thoughts and priorities.

In addition, cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical experiments. These methods can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by turning insight into small, testable steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Susan partners with each person to decide which methods to use based on their goals, history, and preferences. That collaborative process means the plan can change as needs shift.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find online therapy helpful because it lets them fit sessions into busy days, shorten travel time, and maintain continuity when life is changing. Talk with the therapist about practical needs like session length, scheduling, and whether phone or video options might best support quieter or shorter check-ins.
