Getting to know Susan Kasser
My work as a therapist is dedicated to supporting your growth and well-being. I believe deeply in the resilience of people and the ability to navigate life‘s challenges. Therapy can be a powerful space to explore, heal, and move forward, and my role is to walk alongside you with compassion, understanding, and hope.
My approach
Our relationship will be one of trust, safety, and self-discovery. I work primarily from an insight-oriented perspective, but also rely on cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, mindfulness, and mind-body approaches.
My focus
I have extensive experience working with adults and adolescents who are navigating difficult experiences such as depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, or the lasting impact of abuse. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward, but are open to exploring new ways of coping and healing. I value working with individuals who are ready to take steps towards understanding themselves better and building the resiliency to create meaningful change in their lives.
My communication style
My communication style is grounded in active listening and thoughtful reflection, so you truly feel heard and understood. I stay focused on your needs and goals while offering clear and direct feedback to support your growth. Above all, I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore, heal, and move forward at your own pace.
