As a therapist, my goal is to establish a safe and supportive environment based on trust, collaboration, and compassion. I work with adolescent and adult clients both in-person and through telehealth. Areas of focus include anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, neurodivergence, and life transitions. My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, culturally competent, and liberation health perspectives. I deeply value the insight and resiliency that clients bring with them to therapy, and my work is guided by the knowledge that each person is the true expert of their own inner experience.

I have a Master's degree in Art Therapy and Counseling, and love working with adult women, or women reaching adult age, who are seeking insight into their choices, goals, relationships, personal strengths, and who they are inherently. Most of my clients, in their immediate experience, tend to feel anxiety, guilt, fear of doing it wrong, and depressed or grieving at the loss of what was in order to receive the life they want. My clients need to feel reassured that they are not doing anything wrong.

Board certified in neurofeedback, I use NFB and DBR combined with talk therapy to assist clients with self regulation and healing from the effects of trauma. I work with adults, children and families. My focus is on reducing symptoms of traumatic stress which make daily life and relationships difficult. Neuro-therapy and DBR help increase the effectiveness of therapy through "bottom-up" brain training, changing patterns that underlie emotional, behavioral and sensory concerns. I often use Deep Brain Reorienting in combination with NFB, which helps further transform the brain patterns behind difficult to change trauma responses.

Are you struggling to get the most out of your relationships? Do you tend to “put up walls” or repeat the same patterns? Do you often feel like you are afraid to speak up about what you want from your partner? Maybe you struggle with your self-image or your role in your relationships. Maybe you’re feeling lost about who you are and who you “should” be. You’re not alone.

Hello, my name is Susana Wilson! I'm excited to meet you and start our therapy work together. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I completed my education and training at IUPUI in 2010, and since then, I've gained extensive experience in both clinical settings and teletherapy. My journey has allowed me to work with clients facing anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma, providing them with the support they need in the present moment. I believe that there isn't a 'one-size-fits-all' approach to therapy.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.

Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

How much does therapy cost?

The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.

What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?

Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

Are therapy sessions confidential?

Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
