Background and approach
With 18 years of experience, Suzanne has worked with many issues tied to relationships and caregiving. She supports people facing compassion fatigue, chronic stress, and difficult family dynamics. She also helps those dealing with trauma, intimacy concerns, and parenting stress.
Her methods include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered listening, and mindfulness exercises. She may draw on tools from the Gottman Method for relationship work when appropriate. These approaches are used to help people notice thoughts, try small behavior changes, and practice new communication habits.
Suzanne works with practical goals like managing anger, navigating divorce or separation, communicating better, and coping with serious illness or end-of-life concerns. She also supports people dealing with ADHD symptoms, abandonment wounds, and challenges related to autism spectrum experiences. Sessions are offered in English and Suzanne is open to working with international clients.
She provides a mix of formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Suzanne commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people manage distressing thoughts and change unhelpful behaviors. ACT focuses on identifying what matters to you and taking small committed steps toward those values, which can help with anxiety and life transitions. CBT breaks down patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical strategies to reduce worry and improve mood.She also integrates client-centered and mindfulness methods to create space for reflection and calm. That means sessions often include listening, gentle guidance, and short mindfulness exercises to practice between meetings. Choosing the right approach is a team effort - she will work with each person to test methods and adjust based on goals and what feels useful.
Online therapy with Suzanne is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or work better when bandwidth is limited. Messaging and live chat allow brief check-ins, focused exercises, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while exploring approaches that match personal needs.
