About Susan
Susan Mullen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, parenting demands, low self-esteem, grief, career crossroads, and questions about life purpose. Sessions address practical problems and everyday pressures in plain language.
Susan helps people facing major life changes and those needing better communication skills. She also supports caregivers dealing with prolonged stress and people affected by autism spectrum conditions or intellectual disability. Her work includes coaching-style conversations about career and direction when clients feel stuck.
In sessions she combines Client-Centered methods with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques. That means she listens to how a situation feels, looks for small changes that can make a difference, and tests ideas that can be tried between meetings. She aims for clear, manageable steps rather than long lists of tasks.
Susan keeps meetings practical. She helps people build coping skills for anxiety and stress. She talks through parenting challenges and communication problems so clients can try different approaches at home.
She also offers space to process grief and compassion fatigue. For those exploring life purpose, she uses existential questions to identify values and next steps. The result is a direct, collaborative process aimed at making daily life easier to manage and decisions easier to approach.
How her approaches translate to online work
Susan commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to what matters to a person and reflecting that back to help clarify feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior, and it helps people test small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works with clients to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. That collaborative stance helps keep work practical and focused on what the client wants to change.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or meetings that avoid travel time. It can also allow people who live outside Colorado or in other time zones to connect with a licensed professional when schedules permit.
