About Susan
Susan Jentoft is an MS LPC - a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of clinical experience in Mississippi. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family concerns, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, and the pressures common in young adulthood.
She prefers straightforward conversations. Sessions focus on real-life problems like work stress, trouble sleeping, money worries, early-career doubts, and shifts in relationships. She uses practical tools to help people manage symptoms and make clearer decisions.
Susan draws from several therapy methods to match what a person needs. That can mean addressing unhelpful thinking patterns, increasing emotional awareness in relationships, or practicing acceptance and committed action. Mindfulness skills and motivational techniques often appear in short-term work.
Her approach is person-focused and collaborative. She listens first, then suggests exercises and ways to practice new habits between sessions. She also talks frankly about setbacks and how to adjust plans when life changes.
Clients who want help with major life transitions, career uncertainty, or relationship strain will find concrete strategies here. Susan also works with issues linked to addiction, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and caregiving or aging concerns. She accepts international clients and conducts therapy in English.
Online approaches and how they fit into your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and teaches practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) improves how people understand and respond to emotions in close relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and decide together which methods feel most useful. That collaboration guides how sessions are structured and what tools are practiced between meetings.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for quieter surroundings or a shorter check-in when needed. Discuss format preferences and practical constraints during the first meeting so sessions can be arranged to match daily life.
