About Susan
Susan “Sue” Wildermann is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 18 years of clinical experience. She holds a Master’s in the Behavioral Sciences and a Professional Diploma in Marriage and Family Therapy. Sue’s practice focuses on issues many young adults face, including anxiety, depression, relationship strain, career concerns, and life changes.
Sue describes her work as collaborative. She treats therapy as a team effort and talks things through with people to help them find practical ways forward. Sessions focus on changing patterns that cause stress, refining communication, and building skills for day-to-day challenges.
Her background includes work with survivors of trauma and domestic violence, and with people affected by natural disasters such as Hurricane Sandy. She has supported parents and grandparents who are adjusting roles and responsibilities. Sue draws on a mix of approaches to match the needs that come up in sessions.
In practice she uses Client-Centered techniques, Cognitive Behavioral ideas, Emotionally-Focused tools, Narrative therapy, and Solution-Focused methods. That means she alternates listening, skill-building, exploring stories about important relationships, and setting small practical goals.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Sue emphasizes that the client is the expert in their life and helps people identify strengths they already have. People who want clear conversation about next steps and real-life coping strategies may find her style a good fit.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Sue commonly integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person to find their own answers, useful for exploring identity, relationships, and life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sue will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a client's goals and preferences, and she will adjust the approach as needs evolve over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around classes, work shifts, or commuting. They also allow for shorter check-ins when a full session isn't possible and options like audio-only can help when video isn't convenient. Talk with Sue about what works best for your schedule and daily life so you can plan sessions that fit practical needs.
