About Susan
Susan Mount is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 22 years of experience. She focuses on practical help for parents and individuals who are facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, mood concerns, and parenting challenges. She draws on a warm, interactive style to make conversations straightforward and useful.
Her background includes work in residential treatment, addiction services, and school settings where she supported children, young adults, and parents.
Background and approach
That history shaped a practical approach to common family stresses and to the effects of abuse and loss. Clients often come with worries about self-esteem, eating concerns, or mood struggles and practical family communication problems. Susan uses a mix of therapy ideas to fit each person's needs.
She leans on attachment-based thinking to look at close relationships and on cognitive-behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. She combines these with client-centered care to keep the work focused on a person’s priorities. Her sessions aim to be strength-focused and compassionate, with steps to try between meetings.
She helps parents build clearer communication with their children and supports people working through life changes, grief, or complications from trauma. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. People who want a collaborative, practical therapist often find this style helpful.
Conversations are direct but caring, and Susan works to make therapy feel doable alongside daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how close relationships shape feelings and behavior, and helps people repair bonds and improve connection. It can be useful when parenting strains or early attachment issues affect current relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood; it is practical for stress, anxiety, and many everyday challenges.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest ways of working that fit your needs. Together you can try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most in real life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet without needing to travel. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging lets you share updates between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy family schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
