About Susan
Susan Filosa is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem struggles. She describes therapy as a practical space where clients can learn tools to cope with life changes and reconnect with what matters to them. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and draw on ten years of clinical experience in varied settings.
She uses a blend of client-centered work, mindfulness, narrative techniques, and emotionally-focused ideas to shape each session.
Background and approach
That means conversations focus on the client's goals, with practical exercises to manage intense feelings and reduce overwhelm. Creative practices and mindfulness tools are woven in when they fit the person's interests. Susan emphasizes resilience-building and simple strategies people can use between sessions.
She helps people sort through grief, process traumatic experiences, and handle relationship pain such as abandonment or communication problems. Social anxiety and phobia are addressed with step-by-step exposure and coping strategies tailored to each person. Her background includes work in hospital and residential settings, which informs a calm, measured approach in more acute moments.
She frames therapy as collaborative work that respects each person's story and strengths. Clients are encouraged to try short experiments and practical skills to test what helps. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and are scheduled according to therapist availability.
The goal is to help people gain clarity, build self-love, and move toward a life more aligned with their values.
Approaches and what online sessions look like
Client-centered work focuses on the person's goals and experience, allowing sessions to follow what feels most relevant in the moment. This approach helps when someone needs a calm place to sort priorities and develop coping steps.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and work with strong emotions in relationships and personal life. It provides tools to notice patterns, name difficult feelings, and try small changes that can reduce conflict and increase connection.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills and grounding exercises. These practices help with anxiety, rumination, and managing overwhelming moments by building steady, repeatable habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Susan will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying ideas, checking what helps, and adjusting strategies together.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can fit quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options let people schedule therapy around work, family, or daily routines while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical skills.
