Getting to know Susan Cain

Let's meet! Are you looking for someone to understand you-and help you move forward? Whatever you’re facing, therapy with me can offer a space to breathe, reflect, and begin again-with support that’s steady and skillful. As a licensed psychotherapist with experience in both therapeutic and corporate coaching settings, I specialize in helping individuals move from feeling overwhelmed to empowered. Here’s how I support my clients: 1. Finding Relief from Stress and Anxiety If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain, you’re not alone. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re experiencing and create practical strategies that bring calm, clarity, and hope. 2. Making Sense of Work Struggles With years of corporate experience in leadership and coaching, I am here to support your challenges at work. Whether you’re facing burnout, a job change, or workplace tension, I help you unpack what’s going on and move forward with purpose and confidence. 3. Strengthening Relationships I support individuals who want to work on their connections, communicate more effectively, or heal after difficult relationships. I help partners grow closer and stronger as individuals. I do not offer couple's therapy at the present time. I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals through some of life’s most difficult and defining moments. Clients often share how seen, safe, and empowered they feel in our work together. That’s not by accident-it’s the result of deep clinical training, years of lived experience, and a wholehearted commitment to each person’s growth. My approach is warm, grounded, and practical. Together, we’ll work at your pace to uncover clarity, build resilience, and take meaningful steps forward. I offer flexible appointments-including daytime, evening, and weekend availability. Finding the right therapeutic fit matters. If you’re ready to begin, I’d be honored to be part of your journey-on your terms, at your pace.

In-network insurances

Susan Cain, LCSW has 200+ in-network plans.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
