About Sue

Sue Daniel is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with 30 years of experience. She supports people facing grief, caregiving strain, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, and major life transitions. She also offers coaching around career questions and coping with change.

Sue uses straightforward, client-focused care. She listens first and follows the pace that feels right for each person. Conversations cover practical steps as well as emotions, so parents and caregivers leave with ideas they can try between sessions.

Her background includes long work with older adults, hospice care, and service coordination for aging clients. That work involved counseling, education, and helping families understand what to expect during illness, caregiving, and end-of-life planning.

Sue draws on several approaches rather than a single method. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to honor each person’s perspective, Emotionally-Focused Therapy to pay attention to feelings in relationships, and Mindfulness Therapy to build present-moment skills. The aim is to match methods to what the person needs in the moment.

Communications are typically handled during business days, and she checks messages a few times a day Monday through Friday. When response times vary she asks for patience while she balances sessions and other responsibilities.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and responding with empathy and respect; it helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk through family and parenting concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy pays attention to feelings in relationships and can be useful when patterns of interaction cause distress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and grounding skills to reduce stress and manage strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs shift, and sessions are framed as a joint process rather than a fixed plan.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or between responsibilities. It can also allow shorter check-ins when that is more practical, or let someone avoid commuting on a hectic day. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work effectively at a distance while focusing on what the client wants to change.
