Susan Clark

Susan Clark is a dedicated counselor (LPCC-S, ATR-BC) specializing in the treatment of depression, anxiety, and emotion regulation challenges through evidence-based and experiential/expressive arts modalities. With extensive experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, Susan is passionately committed to helping both adults and teens enhance their mental health, functioning, and overall quality of life. Her collaborative approach positions her as a consultant and cheerleader for her clients, guiding them in identifying clear, realistic, and measurable treatment goals. Susan understands that significant growth often occurs between therapy appointments. She offers Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as well as specialized CBT for binge eating disorder (CBT-E). Her comprehensive training and experience in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) inform her practice, providing mindfulness-based strategies for emotional dysregulation, although Susan currently provides DBT-informed treatment rather than the full-model DBT. Additionally, she is adept in the unique field of art therapy, which employs creative expression as a vital component of the healing process. Susan facilitates art therapy to foster emotional resilience, insight, and self-confidence, ensuring that participants do not need prior artistic experience or talent to benefit from this powerful coping tool.
