Susan Diaz, LCSW

Psychotherapist

Life can shift in unexpected ways, and those transitions, whether through loss, new beginnings, or major change, can leave us feeling unsteady. I specialize in supporting adults as they navigate through these challenging moments, with a particular focus on grief and postpartum experiences. In our work together, you’ll find a compassionate space where your experiences are honored and your voice matters. My approach I draw from grief therapy, client-centered care, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused approaches to help you reconnect with your strengths and move forward at your own pace. My focus I specialize in supporting adults as they navigate these challenging moments, with a particular focus on grief and postpartum experiences. My communication style I utilize active listening and provide a space free of judgment. In our work together, you’ll find a compassionate space where your experiences are honored and your voice matters. My journey to mental healthcare For the past nine years, I’ve worked as a medical social worker and therapist in home health and hospice care, supporting people through grief, loss, and major life transitions. Being part of those deeply human moments showed me how powerful it can be to simply have someone there to listen and walk alongside you. That’s what led me to focus more fully on mental health, creating a space where people feel heard, supported, and empowered to heal at their own pace. My goals for you In our collaboration, we will clarify what matters most to you and create meaningful, realistic goals based on your needs. I use a supportive, collaborative approach to help you move forward, whether that means adjusting to a new chapter, processing grief, or finding stability postpartum. We will check in often, celebrate progress, and make space for any shifts along the way, so your care stays aligned with your growth.
