Getting to know Suzette Crayton

My name is Dr. Suzette Crayton Gutter, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Louisiana providing telehealth services to clients. I hold a Doctor of Social Work degree from Capella University. I work with adolescents and adults who experience behavioral health issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, anger, grief/loss, self-esteem challenges, difficulty adjusting to life transitions, and relationship problems. I focus on clients' strengths as a foundation to help improve overall wellbeing. My approach My approach to therapy is client-centered. I most often use cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and psychoeducation. I assist clients in addressing unhelpful thought patterns, working through past trauma, and learning effective ways to cope with difficult situations. Teaching practical strategies that clients can use every day is my goal in therapy. My focus I enjoy helping teens and adult clients learn how to manage their emotions more effectively. This includes, but is not limited to, sadness, anger, grief/loss, and anxiety. My communication style My communication style is relaxed. I promote an environment where clients feel comfortable sharing. My journey to mental healthcare My journey as a therapist began when I was a teen learning how to handle life's ups and downs. I wanted to help others learn how to do the same. Believing that my purpose is to help others heal emotionally is what drives me in this work. My goals for you I approach goal setting by helping clients identify what they want to accomplish during therapy sessions. I assist clients in setting realistic and achievable goals, which are reviewed regularly to ensure they remain appropriate. My first session with you During the first session, clients share their reasons for starting therapy. I encourage questions and concerns and ask questions to understand what is needed to help clients feel better.
