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!

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 am beyond excited for Susan! I didn’t know what to expect with an app but she’s been so helpful and provides valuable insight.
She’s a good listener and provides practical advice
Easy going and good listener. Still getting to know her style but I feel positive going forward.
I’ve found Susan to be compassionate caring and understanding, all while being resourceful, inspiring and knowledgeable consultant. I look forward to every session.
We have very fluid sessions and she is very easy to open up to. Overall, I think she's a great fit
Susan is AMAZING and would highly recommend her. She is very well versed in many different fields and is super easy to talk to .
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!
Susan is a wonderful therapist !
Susan is so easy to talk to, she really cares about her clients. I am so lucky I have her as a therapist. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone to talk to .Especially someone who may be hesitant about seeing a therapist. She doesn't make you feel nervous at all.
Therapist understands and verbalized plight of my daughter. Very helpful. Just didn’t deal with my conflicted emotions in responding with that need. As the reault of the first session I have adapted my responses
Susan is very positive and gave me some tools that helped me with my anxiety. I highly recommend working with Susan!
Susan is amazing. I cannot speak highly enough of her empathy and understanding. Would strongly recommend Susan to anyone.
Susan is respectful and helpful, highly reccomend!!
Susan comes to the table with experience and a calm demeanor. I can see how she could be a relevant source for many different walks of life. She engages in each session quickly and is very kind. I highly recommend Susan!
Susan has excellent listening skills. She can asses my language to find the difference between the symptoms and problems I’m facing. I’m very happy she is helping me.
Susan is great, it's good talking to her. I find answers to many questions I keep asking my self. Thank You
