I have over 30 years experience working with
children
, adults, couples and families on a wide variety of life problems.It is important to find a therapist that is a good fit, someone with whom you feel comfortable and who takes your concerns seriously. My approach is supportive, confidential and empathetic in helping individuals and families recognize their own needs and strengths. It's not uncommon to get stuck in unsatisfying and frustrating situations. Through our relationship you can start to become aware of the things that interfere with feeling better and use your strengths to make changes and move forward.

These days, it's understandable to have difficulties with isolation, and having "nothing to do." But are those "difficulties" interfering with your ability to function? Is it preventing you from working as efficiently as you normally do? Have you had difficulty getting or staying motivated? Are you having an issue concentrating or focusing on a task? Parents, are you struggling to keep up with your
child
's educational performance while managing your own job? Are you having trouble in other areas of life (e.g., alcohol, cannabis)? Are you angry / irritable? If you answered yes to any of the above, then maybe I can help.

I first want to take a second and applaud you, because reaching out to a therapist can be one of the most difficult but rewarding processes. Taking the next step on this journey can be difficult, but having the support and perspective of an empathetic therapist can make all the difference. Creating an environment that allows clients to feel safe and comfortable, while also feeling heard and respected is crucial to the relationship we build. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, life changes, or self-image, I want to assist and join you on your new path.
Susan Flinders
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Verified
I work with a broad array of populations, including
children
, adolescents, adults and the elderly.
Generally, each person and I begin by exploring the issues that has brought them to seek out my services. This exploration entails a joint effort that unfolds over time. A relationship is formed that helps us both to see more clearly how the individual is operating in their everyday life. It is through such an exploration that the individual begins to understand themselves, and, especially, their more intimate relating. I also believe that the person leads the treatment such that we will only go as far as each person desires. I can offer ideas, but, in the end, it is the individual who leads us.

children
, adolescents, adults, parents, and students, I specialize in employing concepts of cognitive and behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help individuals manage a variety of mental and emotional issues, including Anxiety Disorders, Depressive Disorders, ADHD, Anger, and Behavioral Disorders. Through our work together, my patients learn to be more aware of their thoughts, identify their negative automatic thoughts, and reframe their thoughts such that they are more realistic and positive. Over time, this change in thinking has significant implications for the daily feelings that one experiences.

All of us have issues or experiences that can be difficult to manage at times. I work with you to help you find solutions that improve your quality of life. If you have suffered trauma, this means finding some understanding of the trauma and resolving lingering effects. Parents get help in parent management techniques and learn behavior management. For those with addictions, this means working to understand the cause of the addiction. For the elderly, this means completing a life review and understanding the current situation.

Hello! In my clinical practice, I provide a nurturing, non-judgmental environment in which the client feels comfortable and safe to work through personal issues and/or relationship challenges. Therapy is a collaborative journey in which both the client and the therapist work together to uncover past core issues and present triggers that are sustaining emotional distress. Together, we will work to increase self awareness and emotional understanding so that you (the client) feel empowered to identify and to make positive, healthy and effective changes that promote emotional health, happiness, and personal growth.

***Currently--Not Able to Accept New Clients*** Finding the right counselor/therapist is a challenge. Making a decision to call when there are so many choices can be overwhelming. It is an important decision because the relationship you have with your counselor is one of the most important factors in achieving a positive outcome in therapy. The right counselor will be someone you feel you can trust. The right counselor will help you identify the roadblocks that keep you from moving forward. The right counselor will be with you as you take those steps forward from where you are, to where you want to be.
