About Susan

Susan Hancock is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She writes plainly and aims to make therapy approachable for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and relationship strain. Susan often works with concerns that come up alongside illness, caregiving, divorce, and loneliness, and she pays attention to the everyday pressures that wear people down.

Susan uses straightforward talk and practical planning to help people take steps that fit their lives. She asks about what matters most, then helps build a clear, realistic plan. Sessions focus on managing feelings, improving relationships, and solving immediate problems so progress feels tangible.

She has eight years of professional experience and a master’s degree in Counseling. She also identifies as an Anger Management Specialist. Her background includes work supporting people through divorce and helping families adapt when members have different needs.

Susan has personal knowledge of autism through her adult sons, and she draws on that experience when supporting neurodivergent individuals and their caregivers. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, and she aims to make sessions feel easy to talk in.

People who prefer direct, practical guidance tend to find her approach helpful. She emphasizes collaboration and steady steps over jargon. Those interested in starting are encouraged to pick a time and begin with a short matching questionnaire to find the best fit.

How her methods translate to online therapy

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on clear steps, practical skills, and building routines that reduce stress and improve daily functioning. One common approach emphasizes teaching coping skills for anxiety and anger, such as grounding, breathing, and behavior-based strategies to interrupt unhelpful reactions. Another approach used in similar practices works on problem solving and communication skills to improve relationships and handle life transitions like divorce or caregiving challenges.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients are included in decisions about what to try and how quickly to progress.

Online therapy can make it easier to keep regular sessions when life is busy. It can cut travel time and let people fit counseling into lunch breaks or between appointments. Because the biography does not specify session formats, confirm current session options before booking. The main benefit to expect is flexibility that helps therapy fit daily routines, while the therapist and client work together to make sessions practical and goal-focused.
