About Susanne
Susanne Sogar is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She brings five years of clinical experience and a practical focus to short- and longer-term concerns. Sessions are offered in English and German, and she works with clients both in the U.S. and internationally.
She prioritizes building a trusting relationship first. That means listening closely, learning what matters to each person, and naming strengths they might not notice.
Background and approach
Susanne then helps clients set clear, workable goals and chooses tools that fit those goals and daily life. Her approach mixes problem-solving with trauma-focused care. She uses cognitive behavioral methods to help change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
She also applies trauma-focused techniques and EMDR-informed strategies when trauma or painful memories are part of the story. People come to her for many concerns, including stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, ADHD, and life transitions. She also supports work on attachment concerns, end-of-life and hospice matters, mood difficulties, phobias, and social anxiety.
Sessions can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Susanne frames therapy as a collaborative effort - she helps clients test ideas, adjust plans, and find practical steps to feel better. The goal is steady, usable change rather than quick fixes.
Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress and fits well into short exercises and between-session homework.EMDR-informed trauma work helps people process painful memories and reduce their emotional intensity. In practice this means guided processing and focal exercises that can be adapted for video or phone sessions when trauma is a key concern.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and personal preferences, then recommend an approach or blend of approaches. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helping and what feels workable in day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on low-data connections. Live chat or text-based messaging make it possible to check in between sessions, share brief updates, or have shorter focused conversations. These options let people fit therapy around work, caregiving, and travel while still working toward steady progress.
