Getting to know Susan Simianer
Hello, I'm Susan Simianer, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Colorado. With over 15 years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate life's challenges and transitions. My journey in mental health began with a master's degree from Adams State University in 2013, and since then, I have dedicated my career to supporting teens, adults, and families through various therapeutic settings.
I have a deep passion for person-centered therapy, where you, as my client, guide your own process. I believe in the power of autonomy and strive to emphasize it in every aspect of your life. My approach is comprehensive, especially when working with trauma, depression, and anxiety disorders. I have spent years educating clients on healthy relationships and providing support around codependency.
Throughout my career, I have worked as a school-based therapist, providing therapy to students, and in a medical setting, delivering behavioral health care to patients. Currently, I work alongside other counselors in a practice dedicated to supporting families experiencing poverty and mental health issues. My specialties include working with trauma, anxiety, bipolar disorder, adolescent and teen mental/behavioral health, depression, dissociative disorders, family relationships, life transitions, domestic violence, intimate/romantic relationships, somatic symptom disorder, spirituality, and stress. My modalities include, cognitive behavioral therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, somatic work, and Neurofeedback.
On a personal note, I live in a small town with my husband on the Western Slope of Colorado which is so beautiful. I get to spend my summers going to Crested Butte, Telluride, Ouray and all of the great mountain towns. My kids are grown and one of my kids helps me provide neurofeedback to clients.
