“Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It's about how you drive, not where you're going" (Shpancer, Ph.D.). Each of us is on a personal journey striving to be our best selves. Sometimes, these journeys can leave us feeling unequipped to navigate their rough terrain. For most, this is the human experience. While we can't escape the realities and emotions of this experience, we can certainly learn more effective ways to cope. We can find ways to be gentler, more loving, and kinder to ourselves so that we may share this with our loved ones and our community.

“ Susan has changed my life for the better and could not be more grateful! She’s taken the time to listen and understand my worries and has discussed each part when I’ve been ready to do so.

She is very direct and straightforward but with a loving touch that lets you know, she truly cares. She approaches your discussions/ situations with empathy open-mindedness that's warm and inviting."

We all experience stress in our lives. Some situations are confusing, others feel unfair, or like they just aren't getting better. I believe that each of us has the strength to tackle our problems head on, and there is no shame in reaching out for help. When we can talk about our struggles with others, that opens the gate to learn the many ways that we can not just survive, but thrive! I help clients learn skills to cope with the issues so many people face, focus on solutions, re-think how they approach stressors, and connect with their supports to work together on their recovery.

Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I assure you that no issue is too big or too small to put it out there on the table.

As a Therapist with 25 years of experience, I have specialties in couples counseling and Family Systems Theory.

I believe that everyone has the ability to lead a satisfying and productive life, and that it's never too late to start. We all also have the capacity to get "stuck" in unproductive situations or relationships. The key ingredients for a successful outcome in therapy are the individual's, couple's, or family's readiness for change, and the safe, supportive, collaborative relationship we develop. My deepest interest lies in helping clients recognize their own needs, goals, strengths, under-utilized talents, and decision-making capacity. With the clarity they obtain, I can help them take some necessary steps to improve their lives.
