Susan Nimrod, LCPC

Susan Nimrod is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Kansas with three decades of experience. She focuses on making the first step into counseling feel less awkward and more manageable. Her approach is practical and goal-focused, with a calm and nonjudgmental tone.

Susan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, paired with attention to how mind and body interact. She helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding. Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings, such as stress-management techniques and sleep strategies.

Work in the room is straightforward and collaborative. Conversations are paced to each person’s comfort and aim toward small, usable changes. Topics she commonly addresses include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief, parenting challenges, and career stress.

Susan has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings and now provides outpatient therapy in a private practice setting. She brings experience helping with life transitions such as pregnancy and childbirth, fertility or fertility-related concerns, midlife shifts, aging issues, cancer-related challenges, and seasonal mood changes.

Sessions are conducted in English and are offered through a mix of live and messaging formats. People who are exploring therapy can expect clear suggestions, practical exercises, and a steady focus on the goals they name.

How CBT and online sessions work together

Susan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, sleep problems, and practical life changes because it emphasizes concrete skills and short-term strategies.

She also blends a mind-body perspective into sessions, noticing how physical habits and lifestyle affect mood and energy. That helps when concerns like fatigue, sleep, or seasonal mood shifts are part of the picture. The therapist and client work together to choose which methods fit the person’s goals and daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then adapt techniques to each person. If a strategy isn’t working, adjustments are made so therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people meet face to face, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, chat is good for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short, ongoing work between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or medical schedules while keeping a steady therapeutic focus.
