Are you feeling lost; confused or broken? I have 22 years experience working in crisis intervention; depression; anxiety; grief/loss; divorce; gender identity/gay orientation issues; co-parenting; relational problems; domestic violence; trauma; sexual abuse; fertility/adoption; and career/life transition issues. As a Licensed Psychotherapist, I have experience working with individuals; couples and families. I am extremely ethical and am non-judgmental. If I do not feel I cannot help in your presenting issue; I will refer you to someone who could better assist you.

It is also important for you to feel comfortable and safe with your therapist in order to develop trust and form a positive relationship which is essential in your ability to progress and improve. Change happens from within and if you are ready to face some of your concerns, I can help.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

What a wonderful discovery to find Susan here. Often you never get the flavor of a person that you’re not face to face with. But after three sessions we’ve related abc shared stories personal to us both. It’s incredible to see one’s own thoughts, ideas, dreams and fears through someone else’s eyes. As in reading a good book I cannot wait for our next session and exchange of ideas. As a male I always thought I need a male therapist to relate to. I was wrong and know for a fact that her insight and coaching is exactly what I need. Thank you!
