About

Do you ever struggle with negative self talk? Feeling overwhelmed with life in general? Have episodes of depression, anxiety or trauma and not sure how to gain control over your emotions? Have you had a bad experience with a therapist in the past? Sometimes you think you might have an issue with alcohol or substances? If any of this feels familiar my name is Susan and I would love to meet with you. My practice works with individuals who identify as straight or LGBTQAI that have a history of anxiety, depression, trauma or substance abuse. I work with everyday people struggling to make sense of “why do I do what I do.” Life is complicated enough…therapy should not be.
