About Susannah
Susannah Davis is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Vermont. She brings ten years of private practice experience and a long background in school counseling and residential care. Her style is warm and relational, and she focuses on making space for what matters to each person who comes in.
She uses a mix of therapeutic approaches chosen to fit each person's needs. Sessions often focus on practical skills and small steps that make daily life feel more manageable. Susannah helps people talk through relationship struggles, grief, self-esteem concerns, career shifts, and coping with life changes.
Her earlier work included 18 years as a school counselor, time as a therapeutic foster care provider, and roles in sub-acute residential care and art therapy facilitation. Those experiences inform how she notices behavior, emotion, and family dynamics in simple, useful ways.
Susannah often addresses trauma, panic, ADHD-related challenges, and codependency, along with anger, parenting stress, and sleep problems. She aims to combine approaches so they match each person's situation rather than using one fixed method.
At the first sessions she and the client identify which techniques will be most helpful and agree on goals. Sessions are offered in English, and international clients may be accepted; confirm current options before booking.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Susannah draws on several evidence-based techniques and blends them to fit each person's situation. Cognitive behavioral methods focus on noticing thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce distress, which helps with anxiety, panic, and sleep problems. Mindfulness and self-compassion practices teach simple exercises for calming the body and shifting self-criticism, useful for grief, low self-esteem, and stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to pick and adjust methods based on current goals, preferences, and everyday demands. Expect a conversation up front about what feels practical and what techniques to try first.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time so check-ins are easier to keep. Online work can also make it simpler to continue care after a move or while traveling internationally, though specific session formats and options should be confirmed before booking. The focus remains on usable strategies and steady progress that fit into a person's life.
