About Tory
Tory Suehs is a licensed professional counselor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or life changes. She focuses on practical steps clients can use right away. Tory speaks plainly and builds a plan that fits each person’s situation and goals.
Tory has 18 years of clinical experience and practices in Wisconsin as an LPC. She draws from several therapy methods to give people a mix of tools for managing symptoms, improving relationships, and building coping skills.
Background and approach
She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. Her work often addresses trauma, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder, and anxiety-related problems including social anxiety and phobia. Tory also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, intimacy issues, addiction concerns, and the emotional fallout of separation or divorce.
She uses straightforward techniques to reduce distress, manage anger and impulsivity, and build self-esteem. For clients with neurodiversity concerns such as autism or Asperger syndrome, she focuses on practical supports and communication strategies. Tory also helps people process sexual assault, grief, and complications tied to family of origin or blended-family dynamics.
Tory matches interventions to each person instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach. She works collaboratively to build a toolbox of skills, including mindfulness and problem-focused strategies, so clients leave sessions with things they can try between visits.
How Tory’s approaches translate to online therapy
Tory uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that maintain anxiety or low mood. CBT sessions often include clear, short exercises and homework you can practice between meetings to notice real change.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity to stress and improve emotional regulation. These techniques are brief and adaptable to daily routines, which makes them easy to try during the week.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Tory will collaborate with each client to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. That discussion helps shape a plan and the pacing of sessions so clients feel comfortable moving forward.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can be useful when bandwidth is limited, chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people fit therapy into busy lives.
