Getting to know Sue Anne Swartz
Every person who comes to therapy carries a story—one filled with experiences, challenges, and hopes that shape who they are. Whether you’re facing a major life transition, coping with anxiety or depression, healing from trauma, or navigating the pain of complicated grief, I believe that hope is a choice—a powerful first step toward change.
My approach
My work is guided by a client-centered approach, rooted in compassion and collaboration. Together, we’ll uncover your strengths, explore what’s holding you back, and begin to create space for the version of yourself that feels most whole and alive. Therapy, to me, is about walking beside you as you reconnect with your authentic self.
My focus
As your therapist, I hold deep respect for the courage it takes to begin this journey. I consider it an honor to hold space for people as they prepare their mind, body, and soul for growth and transformation. True healing happens within a safe, trusting relationship, and my goal is to create that space for you—to feel seen, heard, and supported.
My communication style
My communication style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported as they explore their stories. Above all, I view therapy as a partnership where we work together to uncover strengths, build self-trust, and create lasting, positive change.
My journey to mental healthcare
Before I became a therapist, I spent 20 years as a cosmetologist. At 40, I decided to start over. I realized that while I had spent decades helping people feel beautiful on the outside, what I truly wanted was to help them feel beautiful on the inside. Today, I help clients rediscover their sense of inner beauty, confidence, and hope.
My goals for you
I help clients meet their goals by creating a space where growth feels both safe and possible. Together, we identify what truly matters to you—not just the problems you want to solve, but the life you want to build.
