About Susan
Susan Garon is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 20 years of clinical experience. She practices in Florida and brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions. Susan focuses on listening first and then shaping a plan that fits each person's life.
Clients can expect clear, practical conversations about stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, and self-esteem. She also addresses life transitions and the everyday challenges that follow adoption, aging, attachment, autism, blended family changes, and divorce.
Background and approach
Susan aims to help people name what feels hard and find small, doable steps forward. Susan uses several evidence-informed approaches, selecting methods that match a person's needs rather than one fixed method. Her work combines direct problem-solving with space for meaning and values.
That mix helps with coping skills and with questions about life purpose or identity. Sessions are offered in English and through a range of online formats. She supports clients who prefer video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
The overall aim is to meet people where they are and make therapy fit into busy schedules. Susan asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin. From there she and each person schedule sessions that suit their timing and goals.
Her approach is collaborative, respectful, and focused on useful, day-to-day change.

Online support
Approaches that translate to online work
Existential Therapy focuses on questions about meaning, choice, and values. In a few conversations clients can look at what matters most to them and how life choices line up with those values, which helps when facing major transitions or midlife questions.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist follows each person's lead, offering empathy and reflection to help people better understand their feelings and make their own decisions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches concrete skills to manage anxiety and stress and adds practical exercises people can try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Susan will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so sessions remain relevant and helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone is useful when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for shorter exchanges, notes between sessions, or people who prefer typing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
