Susan Ramsey-French is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and major life changes. She offers steady, practical support for emotional struggles such as self-esteem issues, anger, compassion fatigue, and coping with change.

Susan prefers to build a collaborative relationship where clients set the pace and goals. She emphasizes small, doable strategies that fit into daily life and offers tools people can use between sessions. Progress is tracked in plain terms so clients can see what’s changing.

Her work covers a broad range of concerns that often overlap, including relational and family stress, attachment and abandonment wounds, body image difficulties, codependency, and symptoms that come with co-occurring conditions. She also addresses issues such as dissociation, domestic violence effects, and blended family challenges.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s needs. It helps people clarify what matters most and guides the conversation by following their priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses focused exercises and homework to change patterns that keep problems going, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.

EMDR is a method used to process traumatic memories in a paced way so they cause less disruption. It is often paired with other strategies to support safety and coping between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and pace. Plans are adjusted as progress is made, and choices are revisited if something isn’t working.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness and homework tasks between meetings to keep momentum going.
