Dr. Susan Gurvich, LPC

Dr. Susan Gurvich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 25 years of experience in behavioral health. She has worked in both hospital and outpatient settings and has supported people from a wide range of backgrounds who are facing difficult life challenges. Her work commonly addresses stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, caregiving strain, LGBT and gender-related issues, grief, intimacy difficulties, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

She approaches therapy with warmth, respect, and a collaborative stance, treating each person as the expert on their own life. Dr. Gurvich draws on a range of clinical methods - including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered approaches, mindfulness-based techniques, hypnotherapy, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy, and solution-focused strategies - to tailor care to individual needs and goals. She aims to help clients identify obstacles, consider alternatives, and develop practical strategies that fit their lives.

Dr. Gurvich acknowledges that therapists are human and that growth often involves learning through mistakes. She offers a direct yet compassionate style intended to help people better understand themselves and how they relate to others. For clinical contact, she conducts video sessions to read nonverbal cues and also uses phone and text options when appropriate, maintaining regular message review to stay engaged with clients between sessions.
