I am passionate about meeting people at the crossroads of life and helping them find a pathway.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in the state of Texas. I have a Master’s Degree in Counseling and Development from Texas Woman’s University.

Whether you are experiencing a difficult life transition, relationship troubles, anxiety, loss, parenting challenges or navigating a turning point in your life, I can help you to create change.

I incorporate the use of Accelerated Resolution Therapy to help my clients overcome trauma, phobias, anxiety and decrease other difficult symptoms to live better lives.

It is never easy to reach out for help, but it is the first step to a journey towards peace and joyful living. I have a focus on starting where the client is and believe in working with my patients to maintain and improve their mental health and emotional well-being. We work together to create balance and peace during all stages of life. I have served clients throughout Central Texas for many years including combat trauma victims (PTSD) at the Department of Veterans Affairs and have established my current practice serving DFW and the Mid Cities.

I am an LPC Associate who believes in trusting the process of moment-by-moment, daily transformation. In a safe environment and relaxed body, we can explore emotions understand defenses, and notice the response in our bodies so that we can grow and heal. I believe in human resilience and seek to provide the resources, support, and courage to move through what life dishes out. I find healthy ways to integrate challenging experiences into our daily lives. I help widen the space between stimulus and response (Viktor Frankl), empowering people to choose the response that will enable them to be their best versions.

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.

Living with your own personal struggles can be defeating. I understand how impossible it can feel to carry on every day. I also understand how difficult it can be to find someone who can be completely objective and supportive to your struggles, especially the ones that are more difficult to talk about. You do not have to feel that way. Any person and/or struggle is invited to see me. I am located at SEVN Therapy, which is a collection of therapists gathered to help our community. From the moment you walk through our doors, to the end of your session, we want you to feel welcomed, loved, and excited to come back for more.

Are you feeling stuck, hurting, struggling to cope with difficult people, lonely? Do you wonder, "What is my purpose"? Do you want to make positive life changes and to experience life more fully? I can help you access untapped or forgotten resources. You can learn to choose how you want to be in the world! EMDR can set you free from painful memories, stressors, anxiety and depression.

Do you feel disconnected in your relationship? Do you feel stuck in this season with little hope of change? Are you able to be honest with yourself and your partner? It can be discouraging, as we all have a basic human need to be known and connected with others. I believe as we begin to discover, accept, and value our strengths, weaknesses, wants, and dreams, we are more equipped to accept and value our partner's. Taking time to understand ourselves enables us to communicate our needs more effectively and meet others needs more readily.

Specializing in Mindfulness Based Therapy, I work with adults addressing concerns such as Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Relationship Conflict, Job Dissatisfaction, Health and Weight issues, and Low Self Esteem. Knowing that a strong rapport is key to successful therapy, I work with each client to foster a relationship that encourages a greater level of self acceptance that leads to growth and change. Mindfulness practices are incorporated to develop self compassion, relief from depression and anxiety, and enhanced communication skills leading to more satisfaction in your relationship with yourself and others.

I believe that each individual holds the key to changing their own story. As a counselor, my goal is to create a safe and collaborative space for you where you can transform negative thinking patterns and destructive behaviors into positive outcomes. Using evidence-based treatments, I will walk with you through the process of uncovering what could be holding you back from experiencing wholeness, joy, and peace. Whether the issue is anxiety, self-worth, life transition, or significant relationship difficulties, I will work to provide a personalized treatment approach that best suits your goals.

The saying, "It is the relationship that heals," is of central focus with my work with clients. I aim to accompany them as they gain insight into their situation and who they are as an individual. This results in added options in managing and enhancing life. We know that problematic areas are multi-determined and multi-layered. Examining and understanding the inter relatedness of all the forces of life allows for overall growth and symptom reduction. This process is a powerful ingredient that spurs lasting change across life stages, relationships and the overall experience of life.

"The purpose of psychotherapy is to set people free" (May, Rollo). You may feel bound by a broken heart, childhood, or a traumatic experience. Or maybe you are in a tough season and need support for a time. Well, your desire to change your circumstance is the first step to setting yourself free and creating the life you want. To take a holistic approach, we will also look at your significant relationships. Healthy relationships are at the core of overall wellness. I will help you to assess the quality of your current relationship(s) and move towards more meaningful connections.
