Susan Toth, LISW-CP

Susan Toth is a licensed social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and trauma. She uses straightforward talk and practical strategies to ease symptoms and improve day-to-day coping. Her first goal is to make sessions feel calm and focused so clients can address what matters most to them.

Susan draws on 16 years of experience in clinical practice in South Carolina. She has worked with people dealing with grief, addiction, sleep problems, parenting strain, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue. Her experience also includes helping clients sort out communication problems, codependency, infidelity, and family of origin concerns.

Her approach is collaborative and client-centered. That means she listens closely, helps set clear goals, and adapts methods to each person’s situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and solution-focused steps are tools she commonly uses to build practical change.

In sessions Susan focuses on small, workable steps. She supports people in changing unhelpful thinking patterns, practicing calming skills, and trying new ways to handle conflict. She often combines short-term plans with techniques that reinforce progress between appointments.

Susan aims to create a steady, nonjudgmental setting where people can name their priorities and take action. She helps clients make realistic changes, rebuild confidence, and find better balance during transitions and stressful periods.

How her approaches work online

Susan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based techniques in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that help people manage stress and calm racing thoughts.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Susan works together with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. She adjusts the plan as progress unfolds so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow a face-to-face feel, phone sessions can work when a shorter check-in is needed, and messaging is useful for brief updates or ongoing support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, and busy schedules.
