Great to meet you!

Most of us who live Virginia are feeling stressed by our hectic lives. Are you feeling stuck or alone, dissatisfied with your job, job loss, spouse deployment, family conflict, grief, sleep issues, road rage or exhausted? We tend to bottle up these feelings and they affect our emotions : anger, anxiety, depression, sadness frustration and substance abuse. I can help you gain tools needed to improve your coping skills, and improve your sleep, reduce feelings of stress, depression and anxiety.

My approach to therapy

I am curious and friendly. I like to begin where you are in your life and move on from there. I believe past traumas and stressors can have a great affect in our present life.

What you can expect from me

I like to be called Susie. I want you to feel comfortable in your therapy sessions. I am kind and caring, you will see that from the start. I'll want to know what has brought you to therapy and how you believe I can be of help and guidance.
