Therapists in Colleyville, TX

As a Family Therapist, I work with individuals and families with a variety of issues. Whenever possible, I engage the whole family in the treatment process.

My specialties include marriage and family issues, life stage transitions with young adults, and substance use disorders.

Recognized for her diagnostic acumen and efficient treatment plans, Susanne Fred tailors psychotherapy based on a thoughtful and proven process that fully assesses the individual's singular situation. Sufficient time is required to decipher symptoms, evaluate stressors and pharmacological interactions, and draw out latent experiences. In this process of discovery, you begin to understand the person and how they will react to various treatment methods. Ms. Fred understands that each person is unique and prefers to utilize the treatment method(s) best for the individual, referred to as the eclectic approach where all empirically supported treatment methods have a place.

Leaving you with the emotions, understanding, and perspectives that lead to healthy and useful behavior.
