Hello. Welcome to my practice. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I provide effective, holistic mental health therapy to those seeking health, balance and peace of mind in their lives. Through a collaborative and trusting relationship with my clients, I offer treatment that is ethical, professional, confidential, and one based upon respect. Within my practice I serve primarily adults of all ages in individual therapy. I do not provide couples counseling.

Hello! My name is Suzanne and I have a Masters degree in Social work from the University of New England. I have extensive experience in assisting clients in managing various issues such as anxiety, depression, chronic stress, gender dysphoria, trauma, hospice care, and grief.

Life threatening experiences sometimes affect us long after the danger has passed. If you find yourself moving through the world in fear, avoiding situations that remind you, even remotely, of the past, EMDR can help. EMDR addresses the cycle of triggering and avoidance that can be so painful and disruptive. The typical course of EMDR is 1-10 sessions. It may sound unlikely that such powerful memories can soften and lose their hold in just a few sessions. But that is what you can expect from EMDR. It is why EMDR is the treatment of choice for PTSD.

I am non-binary, polyamorous, and pansexual and love providing support to people in the LGBTQ+ community. I love working with children and teenagers, but have no specific age restrictions on my practice. I'm seeking clients who need to explore their emotions, experiences, and behaviors in an expressive way. Talking only gets us so far, whereas in my experience, use of the Expressive Arts (dance, drama, music, art, and writing) has an ability to get at the deeper stuff.

Waitlist only! That was fast! I have openings for DEEP as well. I am seeing people in person, via phone or video chat. it always helps to get another perspective and some new ways of coping. Using techniques such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Processing technique and Narrative therapy can help in the process of self discovery and recovery.

Life can be difficult at times. We all have periods of ups and downs.It's when those downs begin to feel overwhelming, make you anxious, and negatively impact important areas of your life, such as your relationships, work, health, spirituality, and the way you feel about yourself that seeking professional help might be beneficial.

I maintain my own mindfulness meditation practice and teach mindfulness to clients who come to see me who wish to learn this. I am quite eclectic in my approach to helping others and will choose methods most likely to be of assistance to you.

As we explore these obstacles, we will look at the present moment, the valuable roots of the past and the treasured hope of your future happiness.

I have had the opportunity to work for 36 years with Individual adults and adolescents, couples, families, and groups. The issues of trauma, loss, life changes, depression and anxiety are so much a part of all of our lives. Levels of stress complicate conversations, disconnect relationships, decrease self care, and interfere with our happiness. Finding balance is what this therapy can offer. Imagine sitting and talking with no judgement, confronting your own past and finding a new present. Working together we will undo old messages which have run your emotions and influenced your behaviors and create new ones you choose to live by.

In these hectic times, we sometimes find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from loved ones, or "stuck" and unsure about where we are headed. Some of us even struggle with past trauma that continues to define our present. As a therapist my responsibility is to provide a safe and supportive environment promoting awareness, cultivating strengths, and encouraging lasting change. My clients would describe me as warm, genuine, non-judgmental, open, and motivating.

As a therapist and social worker I work with people to better understand their place in the world around them and to develop a healthy relationship with themselves. I approach everyone as a whole person made up of all the experiences and identities they bring to the table. At the core of my practice is working with you to understand yourself and your relationship with the world better so you can write the story of your own life instead of having other people and your emotions write it for you. I work with kids 12 and above and with adults at any stage of their life.

I currently do not have any have openings. Do you want to try other ways to manage your symptoms? Holistic Healing Services/Wellness Center has now expanded and can provide more treatment options including traditional mental health therapy or a holistic approach. I provide trauma work, including treatment for children and adults who have experienced long term or short term traumatic experiences. My primary treatment modality is a holistic approach focusing on mind and body, along with psychosocial stressors. I also provide cognitive behavioral therapy along with the holistic approach.

We're a group of mental health therapists who work to assist people in tough situations by listening actively, identifying strengths and supports to be used or to be developed, sharing science-based research and practical tools, promoting insight and understanding of various contributing factors, and ultimately helping clients find lasting solutions. Our work is defined by the client’s vision of what they want their life to become. The inner life and the outer life are both parts of the picture, and we seek to bring both into focus.
