Sometimes lately it feels like the world is on fire and nothing you are doing can change that. And your life is in chaos, and you can't find your way out to restore order. That's where I come in - I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, substance use and gender or sexual identity issues to modify thoughts and behaviors and increase life satisfaction. We can work through your concerns together and put you on a path to implement changes, giving you the ability to be the best version of yourself and regain control of your life.
My goal is not to diagnose your issue, but to help you solve the puzzle that keeps you from reaching your full human potential. I am a mature, cisgender, LGBTQ+ ally entering my second career with extensive life experience.
At this time, I am available for telehealth visits and one day in person in my Ashburn office. Visit www.susanklemmer.com to learn more about me. “Man does not simply exist but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become the next moment. By the same token, every human being has the freedom to change at any instant.” ― Viktor Frankl

The first thing you will notice about our work together is my concern for your self-care during this process. I may encourage mindfulness exercises, allowing you to focus on the here and now instead of past mistakes or future worries. This allows us to identify the thoughts and behaviors that are most impacting life satisfaction, and develop ways to modify them to bring you to a happier place.
