About Susie

Dr. Susie Stubbs is a licensed clinician in Maryland with 15 years of experience. She combines a practical, person-focused approach with goal-oriented strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and ADHD-related challenges.

She centers sessions on the individual's strengths and lived experience. Dr. Stubbs treats each person as the expert on their own life and uses that perspective to shape goals.

She offers straightforward coaching for work-related struggles and help navigating big life changes.

Background and approach

In sessions she mixes client-centered listening with structured cognitive techniques. That means time is given to listening and understanding, then to practicing new skills that change unhelpful thinking and behavior. People can expect clear strategies they can try between sessions.

Dr. Stubbs has experience supporting concerns such as depression, bipolar symptoms, addictions, grief, trauma, and intimacy-related issues. She also addresses sleep and eating problems, anger, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.

She includes attention to relationship and parenting stresses when those come up in sessions. Therapy with her can take the form of coaching, short-term problem solving, or longer-term work on deeper patterns. Sessions are offered in English and scheduled around the client's needs.

She works by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. It helps people feel heard and noticed, which can make it easier to try new ways of coping and to set realistic goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses structured work on thoughts and behaviors. It offers practical exercises for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and patterns that can worsen ADHD-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. Dr. Stubbs will talk through goals and preferences and suggest a mix of listening and skill-building that fits each person. This collaborative planning can be adjusted as progress is tracked.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video supports face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can be a good check-in option. Live chat and messaging allow brief updates, homework check-ins, and flexible communication between sessions.
