Susan Nimrod , LCPC

Susan Nimrod is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Kansas with 30 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges. She earned a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Kansas and has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings before moving into outpatient private practice.

Susan has provided care to adults, children, couples, and families, addressing concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship and parenting issues, grief, intimacy-related struggles, sleep difficulties, and career questions. Her additional focus areas include aging and geriatric issues, cancer, fertility and pregnancy-related concerns, midlife transitions, emptiness, and seasonal affective disorder.

She practices from a cognitive-behavioral framework while integrating a holistic perspective that considers the interplay between mind and body. Susan aims to make the first step into counseling feel less awkward and more approachable by building a non-judgmental, relaxed, and goal-focused working relationship. Her practice emphasizes practical coping skills, clearer thinking patterns, and collaborative goal setting to help clients move forward at a pace that fits their lives.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Susan Nimrod draws primarily on cognitive behavioral therapy, a structured approach that helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, sleep problems, and difficulties with self-esteem by teaching practical skills to test and reframe negative thoughts and to build adaptive coping strategies.

She also integrates a holistic mind-body perspective, paying attention to how physical sensations, routines, and lifestyle factors interact with emotions and thoughts. This approach can be useful for clients facing grief, life transitions, chronic health concerns such as cancer, and challenges related to aging or fertility by addressing both emotional and somatic aspects of experience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Susan collaborates with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and to adjust methods over time so the plan fits each person’s situation. Online sessions - through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexible ways to connect. These options help make counseling more accessible across schedules and locations while allowing therapists and clients to focus on practical progress and consistent support.
