02 · In Sue's own words

What Sue says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

My name is Sue Ann Daniel and I am Licensed Certified Social Worker in in the states of Michigan and Nevada. I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a Master in Social Wor in 2002, specializing in Gerontology and a second Master Degree from Madonna University in 2005 in Hospice Education spcializing in Bereavement . I started out working in a nursing home and then moved to care managment services through Area Agency on Aging for services in the home for seniors. After this I moved into health care, more specifically hospice and home care. I have also worked in senior housing and elder law. During that time I worked with seniors and families to help provide services, counselling and education on what to expect throughout the health care/aging realm. As a therapist I will meet you where you are at and move through your therapeutic journey together. I do not subscribe to one theory, I utillize a multi-theory approach to meet YOUR NEEDS.

I generally check messages here a few times per day Mon-Fri and respond as quickly as I can. I do appreciate your patience when it takes a bit longer at times, as I may be tending to other clients or professional/personal responsibilities.

03 · How Sue works

The 3 approaches Sue lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Sue lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Sue's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Sue runs a session.

Client-Centred TherapyPerson-centred · Rogerian

The therapist does not steer toward a technique or a diagnosis. They offer sustained, non-judgemental attention and reflect back what they hear, on the premise that people find their own direction when they are genuinely listened to. Often what people mean by “someone who just gets it”.

Emotionally Focused TherapyEFT

Built for couples and rooted in attachment: the recurring argument is treated as a cycle two people are stuck in rather than as one person's fault. Sessions work to interrupt the cycle and get to what each person is actually asking for underneath it.

Mindfulness-Based TherapyMBCT

Trains attention on what is happening right now - body, breath, the thought as it arrives - so distress can be observed rather than automatically acted on. Strongest evidence is in preventing depression from recurring, and it is usually taught as a practice you keep doing outside the session.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Sue practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Sue's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Sue at this point.

2. Naming Sue specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Sue is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Sue.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Sue

Built from what Sue actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Sue's - Sue has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “With 30 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

  Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Sue's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Sue. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
