​“it is the relationship that heals”
— irvin yalom

Safe people are difficult to find, especially when you're feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable. 
I provide a safe, supportive and compassionate approach to help people process trauma and other mental and emotional difficulties they are experiencing in their lives. 
Psychotherapy, to me, is a combination of bearing witness, holding space, developing insight, intentional skills, and deepening curiosity, compassion and meaning for one’s own internal life. If you’re reading this, it’s probably because some part of you is suffering in some way and whatever you’ve been trying isn’t working as well as you’d hoped. I can help with that.

Suzanne is thoughtful, skilled and has helped me delve into my core issues, supporting me all the way; she is spiritual and a joy. Suzanne helps heal, center and balance. My time spent with Suzanne will last a lifetime and I thank her for that.
​Peace, Debbie

Very supportive therapist !
I have been working with Suzanne for almost 1 year. I can only say that she helped me a lot, made me aware of many things about myself, and all that through a very safe, supportive and empathic approach. She helped me see different angles to my problems and offered tools and reflections that I could work with. I am really grateful for her walking almost one year beside me and being there in many situations that life brought me in. I would highly recommend her.
