01About Susan
Susan Filosa is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and low self-esteem. She speaks English and Spanish and works with individuals who want practical tools to cope with life changes. Susan draws on ten years of clinical experience to shape sessions around each person's needs.
She uses talk-based methods alongside creative and mindfulness practices when they fit the person's style. Sessions focus on building resilience and clear coping skills that can be used between meetings.
Background and approach
Her style is direct and warm. She aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly about painful events, relationship patterns, or a loss of direction. Susan helps clients name the problem, try new ways of responding, and practice small changes that add up.
Work often includes looking at how early experiences affect current reactions, strengthening emotional awareness, and practicing calming strategies. She helps people improve communication, address feeling isolated, and rebuild self-worth after hurtful relationships. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier emotion, and better day-to-day functioning.
Sessions are structured to match each person's pace and goals. Susan encourages using short exercises, mindfulness, and narrative work to make progress feel manageable. She guides clients toward practical steps that support long-term growth and a sense of purpose.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the person's lead to build trust and clearer thinking. It helps people who feel stuck or overwhelmed by letting them set the pace and focus of the work.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and reshaping emotional responses in relationships and personal patterns. It is useful for people wanting to understand strong emotions, improve connection, or address patterns like avoidance and withdrawal.
Existential Therapy helps people examine meaning, values, and life direction when they feel lost or stuck. This approach supports exploring purpose, responsibility, and choices in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions may weave together these styles to fit what is most helpful in the moment.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and exercises, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, chat supports brief check-ins, and messaging is handy for ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or school schedules while still working with licensed professionals and therapists who can adapt methods to each person.
