About Susan
Susan Hargett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing mood disorders, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, ADHD, and issues around self-esteem and life changes.
Susan focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. She uses client-centered techniques to listen and reflect what matters to each person. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and solution-focused methods to shape concrete coping strategies.
In sessions she helps people name patterns that keep problems going and then tests small changes. That can mean trying a new thought practice, building a short routine to manage mood, or practicing emotion regulation skills. Work often targets seasonal mood shifts, forgiveness, and strengthening self-love.
Her background spans outpatient care and individual counseling across adult mood and stress concerns. Over 11 years she has supported people who need tools for managing depressive episodes, navigating life transitions, and improving daily functioning.
Susan asks clients to set clear goals and checks progress in regular conversations. She mixes practical homework with in-session skill-building. The aim is to make therapy directly useful in everyday life, with steps people can practice between meetings.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy begins with listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people clarify concerns and decide practical next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, behaviors, and mood; it adds exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking and acting. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers focused skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness; it is useful when strong emotions make daily life harder.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together. That collaborative process helps choose strategies that fit a person’s needs and preferences rather than assuming one method will be best.
Session-format details are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in real-life settings and bring in immediate examples for discussion. The focus remains on practical skill-building, measurable goals, and regular reviews of progress.
