About

Hi there. My name is Suzanne. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist in the state of North Carolina. I received my MA in Counseling Psychology from Marymount University, in Arlington, VA. In my 17-year career as a therapist, I have significant experience working with individuals dealing with mental health diagnoses as well as individuals with substance use disorders. I have extensive experience in a variety of therapeutic settings including experience as an Outpatient Therapist providing community-based mental health and substance use disorders counseling to adolescents, adults, and families. I have extensive experience working with adults with a variety of and severity of mental illnesses as a Community Support Team-Team Lead. I have worked with individuals who were court-ordered into substance use disorder treatment; those who would benefit from in-patient treatment for mental health and substance use disorders; and as a Counselor and Program Manager at a treatment center that provided individual and group counseling for patients receiving Medication-Assisted Treatment. More about me: I was born in North Carolina. At an early age, I moved to a tiny village in mid-Michigan. I've also lived in Virginia and Texas. I currently live in the country somewhere between Rocky Mount and Wilson, NC. I live with my two cats and my 15-year-old beagle. I enjoy swimming, reading, writing, animals (wild and domestic), music, and playing video games. I look forward to meeting you and working with you!
