About Sue-Jacqueline
Sue-Jacqueline Spencer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 17 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and the challenges that come with major life changes. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, and caregiver stress. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
Sue-Jacqueline uses straightforward conversation and practical strategies to help people who feel stuck or uncertain about what comes next. She helps clients notice patterns in thinking and behavior and try small, manageable experiments to test new ways of coping. She blends listening with gentle challenge so people can practice different responses in real life.
Her work often addresses difficult emotions like shame and guilt and the ways those feelings affect relationships and choices. She supports people sorting out role changes after adoption, fostering, aging, or caregiving responsibilities. She also works with people coping after natural or human-caused disasters and with personality-related relationship struggles.
Approaches she uses include client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s perspective, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and actions, mindfulness practices to steady attention, motivational interviewing to clarify goals, and narrative methods to reframe life stories. These tools are used in practical, goal-linked ways rather than as labels.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s perspective. The therapist listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, helping them name concerns and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy offers simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust methods if something doesn’t fit.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are available before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy day because they remove travel time and can be scheduled during a lunch break or between appointments. Other practical benefits include the ability to keep sessions shorter for quick check-ins or to use video when visual cues matter and phone when bandwidth is limited. These choices are discussed and agreed on during the initial planning conversation.
