About Susan

Dr. Susan Sult is a Florida Psychologist (FL Psychologist PY3854) with 35 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, mood changes, relationship strain, and anger that shows up at home or work. Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than labels.

She uses clear, active methods such as cognitive-behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior skills, emotionally-focused work, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies. In practice that means talking through what triggers strong reactions, learning specific skills to reduce escalation, and trying short, doable experiments between sessions.

Her background includes long experience with trauma and abuse, addictions, depression, bipolar concerns, and sleep and eating issues. She also addresses relationship and intimacy-related challenges, parenting stress, ADHD-related struggles, and concerns linked to chronic illness or aging.

In the room she treats therapy as a collaboration. She helps people name the patterns that keep anger and resentment alive, then offers concrete tools to interrupt those patterns. She explains the rationale for techniques and coaches practice so new habits can stick.

Practical matters are part of the work: quick skills for a heated moment, communication moves for difficult conversations, and pacing for longer emotional issues. Outside sessions she balances life with hobbies such as horseback riding and quilting, and values time with family and friends.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) focuses on identifying the thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger and then testing small changes. It uses practical exercises and step-by-step plans to reduce reactivity and improve problem solving. DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, staying regulated in heated moments, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are useful when anger flares at work or in relationships. EFT (Emotionally-Focused Therapy) looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people express underlying needs more clearly. It can be helpful when anger is tied to attachment, hurt, or recurring conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and what has or has not helped before, then suggest which methods to try first. Treatment choices are revisited if something does not fit, and decisions are made collaboratively so the plan matches real-life needs.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins, or practice skills between calls. Therapists who do online sessions generally aim to help clients build skills they can use every day, and the same practical techniques described above transfer to virtual settings when those formats are agreed on.
