Getting to know Susan Ackerman

Hello, I'm Susan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 25 years of experience. I am licensed in Arizona, and throughout my career, I've had the privilege of counseling a diverse range of clients in various settings. My expertise spans across working with adults who have experienced childhood abuse, trauma, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, relapse prevention, anxiety, anger management, co-dependency, body dysmorphic disorder, aging, and chronic health issues. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and client-centered. I believe in tailoring my interventions to meet your unique needs, always focusing on you and your goals. I take your lead in our sessions, but I'm also here to gently nudge you when I think it will be beneficial. Clients often describe me as a mindful listener, compassionate, and engaging, which are qualities I strive to bring into every session. I offer a flexible schedule and conduct all sessions via video/remote, making it convenient for you to access the support you need. In our initial sessions, I like to ask questions such as, 'How will you know counseling has been helpful?' 'What will be different in your life?' and 'What will you notice?' These questions help us set meaningful goals together. I deeply respect you for seeking help and am committed to honoring your time and commitment. I aim to use our time efficiently and wisely, ensuring that you get the most out of our sessions. I look forward to working with you and supporting you on your journey towards healing and growth.
