About Susan
Dr. Susan Lieberman is a Kansas psychologist (KS Psychologist LP 1071) with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship strain, grief, and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer communication rather than labels or quick fixes.
Her approach mixes cognitive behavioral strategies with acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. She also uses attachment-based work to look at how past relationships shape current reactions. Dialectical behavior techniques are introduced when people need tools to manage intense emotions and reduce snapping or resentment.
Clients often bring concerns about parenting stress, caregiver burden, chronic illness, or workplace frustration. She also supports people facing intimacy issues, adoption and foster care questions, or challenges related to autism and attachment difficulties. The work is aimed at building steadier responses to strong feelings over time.
Susan emphasizes straightforward skill-building: identifying triggers, practicing new responses, and rehearsing better communication. Therapy sessions include in-the-moment coaching and homework that connects to daily life. The focus is on what someone can try between appointments to reduce reactivity and rebuild relationships.
Her background includes long-term clinical work with adults coping with mood disorders and trauma. She helps people translate therapy into concrete changes at home and work.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online treatment
Dr. Lieberman often combines cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. CBT focuses on identifying thought patterns and practicing concrete behavior changes to reduce angry reactions. ACT emphasizes noticing difficult feelings, clarifying personal values, and choosing actions that align with those values rather than automatic responses.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how earlier relationships shape current responses. That work helps people recognize triggers tied to closeness, abandonment, or trust, and then practice different ways of relating. The therapist and client collaborate to pick which approaches fit the present concern and what methods to try in sessions and between meetings.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. These practical benefits help people practice new skills in everyday settings and bring real situations back into sessions for coaching and problem-solving.
