About
Hi there, I'm Susan. Have you been overwhelmed by juggling life's demands recently? Would you like to feel more confident in relationships and comfortable in your own skin? Are you finding it difficult to cope with change and loss? Reaching out for support is a big first step. As a licensed clinician in both Virginia and Iowa with over two decades of experience, I will work collaboratively with you as a partner to explore solutions and help you reach your goals. My approach to counseling is to create a space that feels safe, nonjudgmental, and welcoming. I am very strengths-based and tailor my approach to your individual needs and preferences. The focus of my practice is working with women of all ages on concerns including anxiety and depression, self-esteem, body image, life changes, and relational challenges. I also have specialized training to help you process and heal from previous trauma. I love incorporating humor and creativity into our conversations as we navigate these difficult topics. I look forward to meeting you and beginning our work together.
