About Susie

Dr. Susie Stubbs is a licensed clinical professional counselor in Maryland with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on career concerns, managing stress and anxiety, and parenting-related strain. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and relationship and intimacy-related issues.

She uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the person's own goals and perspective. She pairs that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when people want concrete ways to change stressful thinking and behavior. In practice this means short-term goals, practical skills, and checking progress together.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. A typical visit might include talking through a recent problem, identifying a few manageable changes, and trying new coping tactics between meetings. Coaching-style conversations appear when someone needs help with career choices or professional challenges.

She works with concerns related to parenting and family life from the point of view of the individual adult. That can include managing anger, sleep or eating problems, and negotiating relationship boundaries at home. The emphasis is on workable steps that fit day-to-day life.

People who choose Dr. Stubbs often want clarity and practical tools rather than long lists of theory. She aims to help people build skills that make everyday demands easier to handle. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site's process to match and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and priorities. Online sessions that use this approach spend time listening, clarifying what matters most, and setting personally meaningful goals. It works well for people facing life transitions, parenting strain, or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gives concrete skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In an online setting this often means practicing short exercises during a session, setting homework between sessions, and reviewing results together. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and sleep or eating issues.

Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods fit best for the situation.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday or a busy parenting schedule, reduce travel time, and allow follow-ups without a long commute. They also let people use shorter check-ins when life feels hectic. Ask about format options and session length when scheduling the first appointment.
