About Sue

Sue Lassin brings 27 years of clinical experience to her practice in Georgia, supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and related issues such as self-esteem, anger, and intimacy difficulties.

Background and approach

She also addresses more specific struggles including abandonment and attachment issues, blended family dynamics, body image, codependency, divorce and separation, and life transitions. Sue aims to build a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings and work toward practical change.

Her style integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered principles, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to help clients identify unhelpful patterns, strengthen coping skills, and clarify values. She has worked with adults, children, adolescents, and families across a range of settings over her career.

Clients who choose Sue can expect collaborative care that focuses on clear goals, actionable strategies, and personal empowerment. She describes the decision to seek help as an important step and positions herself as a supportive guide for people ready to make changes and pursue a more fulfilling life.

Integrating evidence-based approaches in online care

Sue often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; CBT is practical and problem-focused, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday difficulties. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes noticing thoughts and emotions without getting stuck in them and clarifying personal values to guide meaningful action. Client-centered techniques are woven in to ensure listening, empathy, and collaboration remain central to the process.

Finding the right approach is a shared task between client and therapist. Sue works collaboratively to tailor methods to each person's goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made so the plan fits the individual's life and priorities.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling and for choosing how to communicate on any given day. These options can make it easier to maintain consistency, try brief check-ins between sessions, and fit therapy into a busy routine while working with a licensed professional who combines practical tools with reflective support.
