Suzana Figueira

Hola. Bem-vinda! I am originally from Brazil and have been living in the United States for 40 years which means I understand, deeply, what it means to carry more than one world inside you. I hold a Master of Arts in Community Counseling from John Carroll University and have been in private practice since 2010. In that time, I have had the privilege of working with adults from their twenties through their nineties, walking alongside them through anxiety, depression, relationship distress, and grief and loss. I conduct sessions in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, whichever language lets you speak most honestly.

Over more than 25 years of counseling I have developed an approach that is warm, centered, and compassionate. I offer you a space where you feel welcomed and accepted as you are. The goal is for you to move towards self-awareness, to become free of misconceptions and to become aligned within your total self. I also conduct my sessions in Spanish and Portuguese.

Our first session is simply a conversation. We will explore your history and talk about what has brought you here. Together, we will begin to identify what you are hoping to work toward and what a path forward might feel like. Most people leave that first session feeling less alone. That is where we start!
