I am excited to help people that have struggles with depression and anxiety. I have an extensive career in working for Child Protective Services (not as a therapist) but understand the impact of childhood trauma and its impact on children and as they grow into adulthood. I am compassionate and believe that everyone has the ability to change and can be resilient. I also have experience counseling in domestic violence, anger management and trauma. I conducted Batterer's Intervention and Prevention Program (BIPP) for over 5 years.

If curiosity brought you here, then dare 2B curious about yourself! Sometimes we may feel like life seems to beat us down and feel hopeless and just want to give up. Have you noticed feeling irritable, always on edge, easily startle, and dealing with conflict at work might be stressful. Maybe, you want to change the way you interact with family, forgive, or just figure out practical boundaries. Perhaps, what brought you here is the way you think about and treat yourself. Replaying unpleasant incidents over and over when you’re trying to fall asleep, and wishing things were different, "I am worthless. If only I was good enough".

I have a passion for working with school aged children to help them understand and overcome mental health barriers that may affect their academics or reaching their fullest potential. Many children suffer in silence with a wide array of issues that may arise with puberty, school problems, or mental health that may cause life transitions challenging. My therapeutic approach assists adolescents with their unique struggles that includes realistic goals to provide the necessary results needed by the client and parents. Providing a safe and comfortable space to freely express themselves that is judgement free.

For those experiencing a life transition or difficult season in life, talking with someone about the challenges you face is one of the healthiest decisions you can make for yourself and your loved ones. Life can get messy and when it does, it can help to talk it out with someone outside of your friend group or family. In addition to counseling individuals, I have over 20 years experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and their families. I provide guidance to those that struggle in many areas of school; emotional regulation, self-esteem, peer relationships, ADHD, and anxiety to name a few.

At a glance, psychotherapy is a service offered by licensed counselors to treat mental illness & improve wellbeing. To the initiated, however, it is much more. Therapy is powerful. Its focus and impact can vary from person to person. To some, therapy means relief from suffering. For others, it means having access to safety, compassion, and understanding. It’s also used to increase confidence, improve relationships, explore identity, and more. I believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative and flexible. My approach is to combine my clinical experience with my clients' natural strengths to help them achieve their goals.

Do you sense that something undefinable is holding you back from success and happiness in your school, work, or personal life? Our thoughts and actions are often purposeful and useful. Where we falter is when what has worked for us in the past is no longer effective in dealing with our problems. So-called "symptoms" often mask deeper issues in our lives. When these unresolved facets of ourselves are addressed in psychotherapy, we tend to get better. I want to meet you in a genuine and non-judgmental way. My approach is empathetic, playful, and collaborative.

With over thirty years of dedicated experience in the field of mental health, Susan stands as a beacon of hope and healing for those who are suffering. Her approach to therapy is grounded in real neurological and behavioral science. Client Testimonial "With some past counselors, I've often been put off by vaguely new age "feel good" sessions that never sought to address the actual underlying illness. Susan has helped me to identify why I reacted to something in a certain way, and how to catch myself from repeating those thinking traps. I feel great, my family has never been happier and my work life has soared to new heights."

I am an eclectic therapist that combines emotion-focused strategies with psychotherapeutic evidence-based approaches. The underlying principles in my approach are that treating anxiety, depression, self-esteem and more can be traced to experiences, beliefs of shame, and other negative core beliefs in an individual. Finding out these aspects of a person’s life, naming them, and working through them are components of her counseling process. I believe in providing a holistic counseling therapy process so you live a wholly present, healthy life.

For as long as you can remember, your child’s been an anxious kid. You hoped they’d grow out of it, but it only seems to get worse. Getting them to school each day is a tear-filled struggle and you're struggling with how to help them. They spend more time in the office asking to go home than they does in class. Every anxious experience limits thieir world further. You try your best to accommodate their feelings, but you worry you’re making things worse. It’s getting to the point where all they seems comfortable doing is playing alone at home. Something has to change.
