About Susan

Susan Hull is an Ohio-based licensed independent social worker (LISW) who focuses on helping adults through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She draws on 17 years of clinical experience to support people facing difficult life changes and persistent mood concerns.

Her practice emphasizes building understanding of how attachment and relationships shape feelings and behavior. She uses client-centered methods to listen closely and help people name what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and create small, practical changes.

Susan often helps people coping with caregiver stress, addiction concerns, and the emotional effects of serious illness. She also has experience addressing first responder and veteran and armed forces issues. Work in the room focuses on practical skills, emotion regulation, and restoring day-to-day functioning.

Sessions combine discussion, skills practice, and mindfulness exercises when those techniques fit the person’s goals. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes - building resilience and clearer choices over time.

People who want to begin typically complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on the therapist’s availability. Sessions are offered in English in Ohio and she does not accept international clients.

How attachment, CBT, and mindfulness work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how relationships and early bonds shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in relationships and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behavior in small steps; it is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.

Finding the right mix of approaches happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Sessions are collaborative and adjusted over time so the plan fits each person’s needs.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make therapy fit around daily life - it can be easier to keep regular appointments, fit sessions into a workday, or use brief check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they match practical needs and goals.
