About Susan
Susan Sigl, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin, has 33 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and related concerns. Her work also addresses LGBT issues, relationship and family concerns, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
Susan uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral therapy to help people manage symptoms and make concrete changes. Sessions emphasize clear goals and practical steps rather than abstract theory. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps them try new ways of coping.
Her background includes long experience with addiction, domestic violence, and trauma-related concerns. She also has a focus on adoption and foster care, abandonment, family of origin issues, and co-morbidity. First responder issues, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and HIV/AIDS are among other areas she has worked with over time.
Susan often addresses complicated relationship patterns such as codependency, divorce and separation, and hoarding-related problems. She also helps people work through guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose. Work with gender dysphoria and grief after loss are part of her practice focus.
Sessions are practical and straightforward. Expect to set goals, try behavioral experiments, and practice new skills between meetings. To begin, follow the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Susan uses client-centered and CBT approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist reflects concerns and priorities, helping people clarify what they want to change. This approach supports emotional processing and building self-direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises and experiments to test new ways of coping with anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. CBT often involves short between-session tasks and straightforward skill practice.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and responses to early sessions to decide what helps most. That collaborative process guides whether more CBT-style exercises or a client-centered pace is used.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule. They can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from different daily locations. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about what format and scheduling will work best for your needs.
