About Susan
Susan Bump is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people build self-esteem and cope with life’s stressors. She brings five years of experience and works in California. She speaks English and aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk about what matters to them.
Her approach centers on understanding how close relationships shape feelings and behavior. She uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at patterns that affect trust, safety, and connection. She also uses Somatic Therapy to help people notice how emotions show up in the body and to develop simple, practical ways to ease tension.
Susan helps people facing anxiety, worry, and difficult transitions. She supports those recovering from trauma and abuse and those struggling with relationship pain or codependency. She also works on concerns such as body image, guilt and shame, abandonment, and caregiving stress.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and rooted in everyday life. Conversations explore what brings distress and what small steps might change it. Hands-on body awareness or grounding exercises may be used alongside talking to help people feel more steady in their daily routines.
People usually begin by clarifying goals and what matters most to them. Over time the focus can shift from crisis management to building self-love, repairing communication, and finding clearer direction in life.
