About Suzy
Suzy Gold is a Licensed Professional Counselor who has worked in mental health for over 11 years. She offers a calm, practical approach and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, mood concerns, and life transitions. Suzy communicates plainly and aims to make sessions easy to follow for worried parents and busy adults.
She draws on somatic ideas to help people connect body sensations with emotions, and uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients move toward what matters to them.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that get in the way of daily functioning. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationships and how early bonds affect current problems. Sessions usually focus on clear, short-term goals like improving sleep, reducing panic, or building routines for attention and mood.
Suzy offers tools you can practice between sessions, including breathing and body-awareness exercises, simple behavior experiments, and values-based actions. Work may include coaching-style check-ins when clients want practical next steps. She provides services to people in Pennsylvania and accepts international clients.
Suzy meets in English and Korean and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Costs vary with location and are billed through a cancellable subscription. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a time based on therapist availability.
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Suzy blends somatic-informed work and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address how the body and mind interact. Somatic-informed work helps people notice physical sensations that connect to emotions and teaches simple body-based practices to ease tension or overwhelm. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions toward them, which can help with anxiety, mood struggles, and motivation.She also brings attachment-based ideas into sessions to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps when clients want to understand why they react strongly in close relationships or feel disconnected from others. Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the process, and the therapist collaborates with each person to find what fits their goals and comfort level.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, practice skills between meetings, and receive support from different places. The therapist will discuss which format matches your needs and adapt techniques so they work well online.
