Getting to know Susan Piti

Hi there, I'm Susan! I offer help managing mood and anxiety disorders, wellness, and relationship issues. I help empower clients to make decisions that will enable them to make positive changes. Strong cognitive behavioral background, with a variety of counseling techniques. I specialize in couples counseling/individual relationships, including infidelity, financial, sexual problems, and wellness/mindfulness issues. I help partners meet each other’s needs in developing coping skills, improving communications, and establishing effective boundaries. I also help the military with coping skills and assimilating back to civilian life. I’ve been in the mental health practice since 2006, including outpatient services overseas. Being an expat has given me insight into assimilating & acclimating into a new culture. My approach I use a variety of counseling techniques. These techniques involve a collaborative approach in meeting goals that are measurable and attainable, while ensuring they have the confidence to continue working towards the desired end state. My focus An ideal client is not a high bar. All it takes is truly wanting help. This eventually manifests itself in their attendance, completing the homework I assign (and you thought this would be easy), and simply engaging with me during the counseling sessions. My communication style I prefer to listen to the client, especially in the beginning, and be attentive to their issues, while focusing on the goals they wish to work on. I prefer to use a less formal approach and will try to relate to my client when it is relevant to their concerns. At the same time, I can be direct when necessary. My journey to mental healthcare Early in my working years, I was just doing a job. In hindsight, this work laid a solid foundation of business principles for me, yet I was never satisfied. Later on, the right circumstances fell into place at the right time, which made me realize that counseling is truly my calling.
