When you're feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or uncertain about where you're headed, it can be hard to know where to start. At Birchwood Clinic, we're here to help you get to the root of what's driving those feelings, build genuine insight, and create meaningful change that actually lasts. We offer in-person and virtual psychotherapy for adults and specialize in anxiety, stress, life transitions, work/life balance, OCD, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, self-esteem, new parent transitions, pre- and postpartum concerns, and fertility treatment support.
Our team of psychologists and master's level clinicians take an active, engaged approach to therapy. We don't just help you manage symptoms: we work collaboratively with you to understand what's underneath them, develop practical tools, and build the self-awareness to move forward with clarity and confidence.
We believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine partnership built on trust and empathy. We welcome your phone call or email to see if we're a good fit. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation with clinical psychologist and owner, Dr. Susan Bush, who will personally help match you with the right clinician for your needs.
