01About Susan
Rev. Susan Sciarratta helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and life transitions. She also supports those facing depression, parenting challenges, anger, and low self-esteem.
Susan is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC based in Pennsylvania with 12 years of counseling experience. Before counseling, she spent two decades working as a professional engineer. That background shaped her practical approach to problem solving and planning.
She combines that practicality with a calm, compassionate manner in sessions.
Background and approach
Susan focuses on understanding each person's situation and goals. She works with clients on coping skills, motivation, and restoring confidence. Sessions are adapted to what each person needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
She also addresses caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, and concerns around hospice and end-of-life care. Other areas Susan supports include attachment issues, fertility stress, forgiveness, and feelings of isolation or purposelessness. Susan aims to create a respectful and sensitive space for honest conversation.
She helps people break down problems into manageable steps and track small changes over time. Her goal is to support and empower people as they move toward clearer decisions and greater emotional balance.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Online sessions with Susan can use evidence-based techniques focused on practical problem solving and emotion regulation. Problem-solving approaches break issues into clear steps and help create action plans for stress, work or caregiving concerns. Emotion-focused strategies help people name and work through difficult feelings like grief, shame, or anger so they feel more in control.Choosing the best approach is collaborative. Susan will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together the client and therapist try methods, adjust them, and pick what fits best for the person and their situation.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, homework, or when a short update fits a busy day. These options let people access consistent care from different locations and schedules.
