About Susanne

Susanne Sogar is a Florida LMHC with five years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and social anxiety and phobia among other issues. Sessions are offered in English and German and she accepts international clients.

She begins by building a trusting relationship and getting a clear sense of what is most pressing. Susanne looks for practical ways to reduce day-to-day distress. She helps people identify strengths they may not have noticed and then uses those strengths to set small, achievable steps forward.

Her approach includes methods that focus on thoughts, behavior, and trauma processing. She combines goal-focused work with attention to how past experiences affect current patterns. That can mean setting concrete behavioral experiments, working on unhelpful thinking, or addressing painful memories in a paced way.

Clients from varied cultural and religious backgrounds are part of her practice. Susanne draws on her own experience living abroad to recognize different worldviews and life meanings. That background informs how she talks with people about values and identity.

Practical matters such as scheduling, cost, and the matching process are handled through an online sign-up. Prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Susanne emphasizes clear steps and small goals so people can test what works and adjust as they go.

How Susanne Uses Approaches Online

Susanne works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR as part of her approach. CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses small experiments and practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. EMDR is a paced method for working with upsetting memories and intense emotional reactions, used to reduce the hold those memories have on present life.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and current concerns and then agree on what to try first. That plan can change as progress and comfort levels become clearer, and adjustments are made together.

The biography does not specify exact session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and allow sessions without travel. Therapists can use CBT tools between sessions and pace memory-focused work like EMDR to match a client's readiness. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday life while the therapist and client find the best approach together.
