More about Susan

  • 12 years' experience
  • Female
  • LICSW

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. My therapy style is strengths-based and utilizes a combination of eclectic and traditional treatment modalities. I am active in my therapy style, meaning I frequently ask questions and provide input as opposed to a style which focuses predominantly on listening. However, if you prefer me to listen, I can do that as well.

My specialty areas include anxiety/anxiety-based disorders, eating disorders, depression, relationship issues, women's issues, life transitions, career change (especially mid-life career change), and parent coaching. I work with clients who seek to improve their mental health, strengthen their family, personal or professional lives, or want to set and reach new goals.

Specializing in treating adults, adolescents, and therapy for the therapist.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I’ve only had one session with Sue so far but I was very happy with how it went. I felt comfortable discussing problems with her and appreciated her pragmatism in helping me lay out a path towards addressing them. Her style of therapy seemed grounded but not formulaic.

My time with Susan has been very healing. I highly recommend Susan, especially if you are a survivor of narcissistic personality disorder abuse, childhood trauma, and anxiety. She is compassionate, validating, and understands the complex issues that arise from being psychologically abused, especially in one's family of origin. Please do yourself a favor and book time with Susan if you are ready to heal and find your inner resilience guided by a qualified and intuitive therapist.
