About Susan Rhodes

Three words that describe my style are:
Creative, Open-Minded, Passionate

Something unique about my approach is:
I have a diverse background working in many environments and with many populations. Plus, I utilize my experiences, personally and professionally, to engage clients to begin their healing journeys. I am direct and compassionate and my goal is to develop a unique treatment plan that fits your healing style and pace.

Together we will explore:
Steps for Healing, Personal Inventories, Actions to Support Recovery, and Connections to Resources.

I specialize in working with people who:
Are willing and desire change, despite it being hard to confront! and individuals that are open to exploring their role within their relationships. I can show you how to walk through grief, pain, depression with grace, integrity, humility and be a better person for embracing change.

I became a therapist because:
I have always been fascinated by others and their thinking and behaviors. The ability to impact change within personal lives is a privilege.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:
Teletherapy allows you to be in the comfort of your own home and offers flexibility in scheduling.

When I’m not at work, I like to:
Exercise (training for a full marathon), cooking, taking “Day Trips” and hanging out with friends, family and pets and creative outlets (writing, podcasts, community projects).

More about me:
I have over 20 years experience in the Mental Health field. I “walk the walk” when talking about change.
