About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Rhode Island and Massachusetts with 7 years of direct psychotherapy experience working with individuals from many backgrounds and ages. In addition, I have over 12 years experience mentoring youth and families and over 8 years as a life coach for women struggling with health and body issues. I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, relationship and intimacy issues, sexual dysfunction, parenting problems, discipline strategies, trauma related issues and borderline personality disorder. I also specialize in anxiety related disorders as I have experienced the toll that stress and anxiety can take on your everyday life.

My counseling style is warm, interactive, and goal oriented. I believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion. I also don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling. I also have vast experience with DBT (Dialect Behavioral Therapy) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Suzanne Kane is extremely attentive and caring. She offers positive solutions to very difficult situations and problems. She listens well. She is very good about writing back, when I leave a message on the website. I highly recommend Suzanne Kane for therapy!

Written on Jan 18, 2024 after therapy with Suzanne for 1 month on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, self esteem, anger management, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and coaching

Suzanne is so approachable and makes therapy easy and flowing. She gave me a lot of worksheets that helped me tackle the issues affecting my life and negative thoughts in a practical, step-by-step way that helped me make real progress on issues that have plagued me my whole life. She is very warm and relatable and helped me feel empowered as a parent, rather than stuck and discouraged.
