It's time to prioritize yourself.

First, I am SO glad you're here. Therapy can be intimidating, but I want you to know, you're not alone. I work to provide an empathic, non-judgmental environment to explore life's challenges, the grey areas, and develop skills to cope in our world. My approach to therapy is built on relationships, compassion, and transparency. Let's connect.

About

More about Susan.

Susan Youngsteadt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor (LCSW-S). While she began her career working with children and families, her work has grown - becoming more rooted in working with young adults and adults with trauma, loss, depression and anxiety, as well as life transitions. Susan has also completed training as an End-of-Life [Death] Doula. Her work is deeply intuitive, heart-centered, and focused on helping clients heal emotionally, spiritually, and psychologically. She has been professionally nicknamed "the challenger" due to her direct, relational, engaged style of therapy and reputation of holding others accountable, she uses a holistic approach, looking at the health of the whole body, mind, and spirit. Susan is LGBTQ affirming and works from a trauma-informed approach and is dedicated to being culturally competent, continuing to seek support to better serve her clients. Please inquire about becoming a new client (ages 18+) for outpatient therapy at this time. In addition to her work in private practice, Susan volunteers at Transitions Hospice Home and a reproductive rights agency. Please inquire about insurance or out of network coverage.
