Suzanne Brabant , LCSW

Suzanne Brabant is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and the strain of major life changes. She emphasizes practical steps and steady support so people can feel more in control. Suzanne speaks plainly and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each person.

Suzanne has 20 years of experience in clinical work in Florida. Over that time she has worked with people dealing with compassion fatigue, chronic pain or illness, postpartum depression, and concerns common to veterans and first responders. She also helps with everyday issues like obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, phobias, jealousy, and questions about life purpose.

Her approach centers on the person in the room. Suzanne uses client-centered methods to listen and follow what matters to each client. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help set clear goals and make steady progress.

Suzanne supports women navigating pressures specific to their lives, including postpartum mood changes and self-worth struggles. She also offers guidance around end-of-life and hospice concerns, forgiveness, and relationship challenges such as infidelity.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Suzanne helps people set small, realistic steps and checks in on what’s working. She encourages collaboration so each person helps shape their path forward.

Practical approaches for online therapy and progress

Suzanne often uses client-centered therapy, which means she starts by listening and following each person's priorities. That approach focuses on understanding your goals and building on your strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is also part of her work; it helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative step. Suzanne will talk with you about what feels right, try techniques in session, and adjust based on your needs and goals. Together you set short-term aims and track progress so the work stays relevant to your life.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, on-the-go support, or steady written reflection. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
