Suzanne Tyghter

Suzanne Tyghter is a licensed clinical social worker who brings 19 years of practice to people facing major life challenges. She focuses on helping clients cope with anxiety, depression, grief, and family conflict while strengthening self-worth and resilience.

Her work is often used during big transitions such as divorce and caregiving changes. She supports people who feel isolated, overwhelmed by guilt or shame, or stuck in communication patterns that heighten stress.

Suzanne uses straightforward, collaborative conversations. She listens, helps clarify what matters most, and offers practical strategies to reduce anxious thoughts and build better daily habits. Sessions focus on immediate concerns and on small steps that add up over time.

Client-Centered Therapy shapes much of her style - she follows each person’s pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors that improve mood and relationships.

People who work with Suzanne often focus on clearer communication, setting boundaries, handling caregiver strain, and rebuilding self-love after loss or separation. She aims for a calm, respectful space where clients can try new approaches and notice steady progress.

How Client-Centered and CBT Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following each person’s needs and values. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the client set their own goals; this approach helps when someone needs to regain direction during a separation or grieving process.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits that reduce anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Suzanne will collaborate with each client to decide whether a listening-focused Client-Centered path, CBT skills and exercises, or a mix makes the most sense based on goals and preferences.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow brief check-ins when full sessions are not possible. They also let people continue care across a transition, such as after separation, without needing to travel. Licensed professionals can help shape a plan that fits daily life and priorities.
