Susan Rhodes, LCSW
About me
Three words that describe my style are:
Creative, Open-Minded, Passionate
Something unique about my approach is:
I have a diverse background working in many environments and with many populations. Plus, I utilize my experiences, personally and professionally, with the disease of addiction to counsel my patients and provide a unique perspective to aid with healing.
Together we will explore:
Steps for Healing, Personal Inventories, Actions to Support Recovery, and Connections to Resources.
I specialize in working with people who:
Are willing and desire to have change. People who are open to exploring their role within their relationships. I can show you how to walk through grief, pain, depression with grace, integrity, humility and be a better person for embracing change.
I became a therapist because:
I have always been fascinated by others and their thinking and behaviors. The ability to impact change within personal lives is a privilege.
Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:
Teletherapy allows you to be in the comfort of your own home and offers flexibility in scheduling.
When I’m not at work, I like to:
Exercise (training for a full marathon), cooking, time with family, taking "Day Trips" and watching my chickens out in their pasture.
More about me:
I have over 20 years experience in the Mental Health field. I "walk the walk" when talking about change.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Susan Rhodes. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I’ve been working with Susan for a few weeks now, and it’s been a great experience so far. We have good, focused dialogue, there’s a healthy grounding of mutual respect, she closely listens to my needs, checks in on how I’m doing, and she also keeps me accountable to my goals. Thank you Susan!

Susan is incredibly kind and thoughtful. I feel like she is very proactive when it comes to helping me figure out certain issues I'm having. I feel listened to and seen and that is really important to me. I am super excited and eager to continue working with her!
