“She is one of the first therapists I feel I have been able actually to connect with, even if it's virtually. She always structures our appointments around what I need, whether that be a place to talk about what I'm going through or find solutions to problems. She also has helped with childhood traumas that have damaged my self-esteem and she helps build me back up.”

Getting to know Suzanne Burns
Are you a teen or young adult who would like to move from experiencing self-doubt, low energy, anxiety, disconnection, poor sleep, mood fluctuations, and hopelessness to experiencing confidence and clarity, stable reliable energy, ease in your life, connection and a sense of belonging, rejuvenating sleep, mood stability, and meaning and purpose?
I offer counseling, coaching, and education for your Body, Mind, and Spirit. As a licensed school counselor, licensed mental health counselor, certified wellness coach, and comfort therapy dog partner, I have been helping teens and young adults begin again and thrive both in their schools and communities for over 20 years. I hold an MEd in Counseling Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Boston. I provide online and in-person individual and group counseling for teens and young adults.
In addition to my private practice, I am a High School School Adjustment Counselor, former High School Guidance Counselor, iDecide Diversion Instructor/Coach, and Mindfulness Instructor. In my personal life, I enjoy hikes in the woods with my family and dog, practicing yoga, and being an enthusiastic lifelong learner!
What should a new client know about working with you?
Teens and young adults will enter a safe and accepting space that will be held for them, just as they are. They will be guided through an exploration of their relationship with themself, their emotions, their inner life, their challenges and their deepest desires. Together, we will explore new ways of being and showing up for their life as they work toward who they are becoming.
Over the span of their counseling or coaching experience they will develop self-awareness, skills and strategies that will help them move away from what is not working for them and set them up on path to begin again and thrive.
In person clients will have the option of requesting Breezy, a comfort therapy dog to join sessions. Breezy's presence will serve as another layer of support and comfort.

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.
