Susan Jaros
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist -
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides therapeutic services to Texas residents who are, or have, met challenges in their lives. I have had the most amazing experiences with clients in a variety of organizations during my Social Work career. Examples include working in a trauma center hospital, working at a women and children’s shelter, provided crisis intervention, an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) Counselor, worked at an out-patient Mental Health center, hospice and managed care.My passion has always been helping others who have such interesting ‘stories’ to tell about their experiences and challenges living life, as we all do.What drives me is connecting with people who encounter struggles in their day to day lives, providing a safe place, HIPAA compliant confidential environment, to walk with clients on their journey to heal and thrive.With our climate of technology, social media and texting, I believe we all lack, in some aspect, a connection to others.My approach to helping you is by actively listening in a non-judgmental manner, supporting you while we identify areas of focus. I combine many therapeutic modalities to develop a plan tailored to you and your needs from a Strength‘s Building perspective.Our work together is a collaborative process. We will get to the cause of the obstacles holding you back from living your best life by understanding how you relate to yourself and others using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to counter negative thoughts that influences emotions and behaviors.Everyone of us has a story to tell.Your story matters.You matter.
