About me

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to view my profile.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Whether you are seeking support for mental health concerns, substance use, life changes, stress, or simply want a safe place to talk and better understand yourself, counseling can provide an opportunity for meaningful growth and change.
I am an independently licensed clinical social worker in multiple states and currently hold the following licenses: New Hampshire – LICSW; Vermont – LICSW; Ohio – LISW-S; and Florida – LCSW.
I am also a Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor (LICDC) in Ohio.
My approach to counseling is supportive, practical, and collaborative. I will work with you to identify areas of concern while also helping you recognize and build upon the strengths you already have. I believe therapy should provide a comfortable, nonjudgmental space where you can openly discuss what is happening in your life while developing greater insight and practical skills for moving forward.
I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on understanding the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through discussion, education, and skill building, we will work together to identify patterns that may be contributing to the difficulties you are experiencing and develop strategies that support the changes you want to make.
I have extensive experience working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, substance use concerns, life transitions, and challenges related to decision-making and behavioral patterns. My approach is individualized, and I adapt our work together based on your needs, goals, and learning preferences.
My goal is to work alongside you as you gain a better understanding of yourself, develop useful skills, and work toward the goals that are important to you. I look forward to meeting you and being part of your journey.

Susan is very understanding and shows a great ability to process/reprocess what you tell her and analyze how you should change perspective.

My first positive out of many experiences with therapy! Susan has been an outstanding advocate for both my mental and physical health. She has been invested in my well-being and dedicated to my personalized growth since day one. We've been able to work at my own pace and is fantastic with schedule flexibility! I'm sad to have to move out of range soon but so excited for whoever finds her next.
