Susan Rair Krug

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Susan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice concrete strategies to change behaviors and emotions; this approach is well suited to addressing anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related concerns. She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to build present-moment awareness and stress management skills, which can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation in daily life. Additionally, Motivational Interviewing is used when readiness for change and substance use concerns are part of the work, guiding clients through ambivalence toward clearer goals.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and learning preferences. That collaborative planning helps shape sessions that feel practical and relevant to the client’s circumstances.

Online therapy with Susan is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while practicing new skills between sessions, and they allow people to access licensed professionals from their own location.
