About Susan

Susan Henry is a licensed social worker with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, loss, and life changes. Her practice emphasizes a welcoming, affirming space where clients can speak honestly and be heard.

She focuses on practical skills and steady emotional work rather than quick fixes. Sessions often involve noticing patterns, trying small changes, and building coping tools that fit daily life. She supports people dealing with addictions, grief, sleep or eating concerns, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Susan uses a mix of well-known therapy approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused perspectives, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral tools, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Those methods are blended to help with both immediate problems and longer-term patterns.

Her background includes long experience helping people through workplace stress, transitions, and emotional wounds from past trauma or loss. She works with clients who are LGBT and those dealing with ADHD, bipolar, depression, or caregiving strain. Her Minnesota practice also addresses aging, adoption and foster care concerns, and complex medical or chronic pain situations.

People who prefer steady, respectful exploration and practical strategies may find her approach helpful. To begin, choose the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a session based on the therapist’s availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Susan often blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to address emotional patterns. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values; it can help with anxiety, stress, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help with intimacy, trust, and relationship struggles.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps. Expect regular check-ins about what’s working and changes if a different method fits better.

If you plan to try online sessions, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats were not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules require it. Many people find remote sessions let them maintain consistency during life transitions and ongoing stress without needing extra commute time.
