I provide therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and relationship issues (no couples counseling).
Hello, my name is Susana Wilson! I'm excited to meet you and start our therapy work together. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. After completing education and training in grad school in 2010 at IUPUI I provided therapy in a clinical setting and then moved to teletherapy. I have experience in treating patients with anxiety, depression, grief and coping with trauma in the present moment. There isn't "a one size fits all" approach to therapy. I will meet you where you are at. I want to empower you and help guide you through any challenges that arise.

I effectively work with a variety of concerns and symptoms, including: various levels of depression, anxiety, mood management, identity issues, loss of purpose and meaning, religious trauma, anger, shame, breaking codependency, struggles with self worth, setting limits and boundaries with others and obligations, sexuality or gender identity issues, unhealthy relationship patterns—but ultimately I strive to help clients become whole beings by reintegrating disowned parts of themselves. I find my passion strongest and my work most effective with young adults (18-24) and earlier adulthood (25-50).

Hello, my name is Jeremiah Soto and I'm excited to meet you soon. I'll be happy to help guide you as you start or continue your therapy work. An ideal client would be a client who is in the preparation stage of change and is committed to achieving their goals. However, this is generally not the case for most people who are coming to therapy. Ideally, the individual has some general awareness of their needs and wants to use treatment to further grow and address the issues that they are facing in their day-to-day lives with realistic expectations.

Grief Therapists

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
