Atlanta-based therapist for women throughout GA, specializing in eating disorders, anxiety, and women’s issues

      Are the ways that you’re coping no longer serving you?

  • You criticize yourself with “shoulds” and “oughts”

  • You evaluate yourself by your weight and shape

  • You find it difficult to say no or to ask for help

  • You believe negative emotions, such as anger, are bad or destructive

  • You reject or minimize accomplishments or compliments

Hi, I’m Susie.

I have the experience to know that change is possible.

We are wired for connection, and I am committed to my relationship with you, taking seriously my goal of creating a warm, nurturing space where you can be comfortable. Counseling is a place for you to talk freely about your life in a safe, compassionate environment. I am fully present for my clients, approaching issues with empathy, humor, and curiosity.

Specialties

Eating Disorder Therapy

Recovery from an eating disorder is a very challenging process. It takes bravery to begin the journey and persistence to continue after higher level treatment.

A good connection with an eating disorder therapist is key to your progress. I have the experience and specialized training to support you as you recover to a life of meaning and purpose.

Anxiety Therapy

Anxiety comes in many different forms and can be disabling, preventing you from doing what you really want with your life. In therapy, we will examine your  unique struggles and find tools and strategies that will work for you. We will look at how your thinking impacts anxiety and how avoidance leads to anxiety.

Women’s Issues

The transitions in a woman’s life are many. Women are wired for connection and benefit from an emotional bond of trust, caring and respect. I have the training as well as the lived experience to help you with challenges related to relationships, parenting, work-life balance, and aging. 

What would life look like if the problems you’ve been struggling with were no longer there?

Therapy with me is…

  • Discussing why therapy did or didn’t work in the past

  • Thinking about your thinking and how it impacts your emotions and behavior

  • Providing ongoing accountability

  • Talking about life meaning and your values

  • Valuing our relationship

Therapy with me is not…

  • Avoiding difficult conversations or emotions

  • All insight and no action

  • Cookie cutter therapy: one size fits all

  • Without a team, if you have an eating disorder (including a registered dietician and medical provider)

  • Only working during session

I’ll meet you where you are.

  • For women who need flexibility and convenience, I offer online therapy using HIPPA compliant video sessions. If you are a student, mother, busy professional, or just prefer the comfort of your home, online therapy can be both effective and practical.
