Background and approach

Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are tools she draws on to strengthen motivation and reduce reactivity. Her background includes work in outpatient settings, community support teams, and treatment programs that provided medication assisted therapy for opioid use. That range of experience means she has supported people through both short-term crises and longer recovery journeys.

She has worked with people affected by trauma, grief, chronic illness, and life transitions. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what feels most useful. Suzanne prefers video at first so people can get to know each other, but she adapts to the format clients choose.

Appointments are scheduled across weekdays, evenings, and Saturday mornings. She aims to help people build skills for managing symptoms, improving relationships, and finding clearer direction. Suzanne focuses on small, practical changes that add up over time.

If someone wants guidance on anxiety, addiction, mood, or related concerns, she offers steady, experienced support.

How Suzanne’s Approaches Work Online

Suzanne uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot patterns in thinking and behavior that increase anxiety or depression, and then practice new, healthier responses. CBT is practical work you do in sessions and between appointments to change how you respond to stress.

She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention skills that reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus. Mindfulness exercises are short practices that can be used during the day to interrupt worry or tension.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Suzanne will listen to your goals, try methods that match your needs, and adjust the plan over time. She values client-centered care and uses motivation-focused conversations to help people stay engaged and move toward clear goals.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is helpful when visual cues matter, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can be useful for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping the work focused on practical change and progress.
