Treatment Philosophy

Susan strives to help clients increase their appetite for life, joy, and connection. She believes we are often most afraid of the very things that bring us meaning—relationships, growth, and self-worth. Drawing inspiration from psychotherapist Adam Phillips, Susan emphasizes the importance of involving others, working through losses, and building tolerance for conflict. She supports clients in navigating life's ups and downs with compassion and courage, offering a safe, respectful, and collaborative space where clients can rediscover their strengths, values, and self-care.

Recovery Quote

"A complete mastery of existence achieved at one moment gives no warrant that it will be sustained or achieved again in the next." – George Santayana
