About Susan

Dr. Susan Sult is a Florida psychologist with 35 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and sexual dysfunction. She works with individuals and couples to talk through current problems and find practical steps forward. Susan is straightforward and calm in sessions and focuses on clear goals that matter to each person.

She uses evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and emotionally-focused therapy to address relationship patterns. Mindfulness and solution-focused strategies are included when helpful.

In the therapy room she treats trauma, addiction, bipolar disorder, sleep and eating issues, ADHD, grief, chronic illness, and many forms of relationship strain. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment wounds, body image, and concerns related to BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture.

Dr. Sult describes therapy as a partnership. She will help a person identify realistic steps and explain the techniques used to reach them. Her style aims to be practical and respectful, with clear explanations of tools to use between sessions.

Outside of work she enjoys horseback riding, quilting, and cooking, and values time with family and friends. To begin, readers should use the site's Start Therapy button to match and schedule a session.

How online approaches and therapy methods fit together

Dr. Sult often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then try practical experiments to change behavior. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related problems.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those tools can help when feelings run high or when relationships keep repeating painful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Session formats are not listed in the supplied biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, allow easier follow-up when travel is involved, and make shorter check-ins possible when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep momentum between visits and practice skills in real life.
