Susan utilizes a range of modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, strength based perspective, person centered therapy, and provides skill building through integrating play therapy, mindfulness, and some aspects of art therapy. She believes in the importance of providing a safe and supportive environment to sensitively explore her client’s symptoms and concerns, while also building awareness and skills to assist clients outside of therapy. Life can bring ups and downs, and Susan would be honored to be part of your journey of healing. When Susan isn’t doing therapy, she enjoys spending time with her husband, children, and furbabies.
