About Susan

Susan Jordan-Kertzner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 19 years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, ADHD, and questions about life purpose. Susan also works with people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges related to identity and LGBT issues.

Her sessions are interactive and practical. She uses familiar tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice patterns and try small changes. She also integrates attachment-based ideas when relationship patterns are part of the concern.

Clients can expect clear conversation about goals and next steps. Susan aims to turn overwhelming problems into manageable steps. The work often includes skill practice between sessions and simple experiments to test new ways of coping.

Susan brings experience as a psychotherapist and executive coach, so career and life-transition concerns are a common focus. She has helped people manage panic attacks, postpartum depression, caregiver stress, and issues many veterans and first responders face.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help when anxiety or avoidance keeps someone from doing what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to challenge unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like panic attacks.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made and new issues come up.

This profile notes that international clients are accepted and that sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow a brief check-in when time is limited, or reduce the need for travel. Licensed professionals can use focused skills practice and short between-session tasks effectively in online settings, which may help people manage social anxiety, panic, and everyday stress without major disruptions to daily life.
