Susan Lam

My communication style

I create a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment where you feel heard and understood. I'm empathetic, compassionate, and an active listener who truly hears your experiences. I use a collaborative approach, working with you to develop personalized treatment plans.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to this field by a passion to help others and make a positive difference in people's lives. I have a natural inclination towards listening and supporting others, with a strong sense of empathy and compassion. I'm motivated by a deep commitment to my clients' well-being and personal growth.

My goals for you

At the beginning of therapy, I ask what you hope to achieve through our work together. We refine those goals to make them specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Throughout therapy, I check in regularly to see how you're progressing and make any necessary adjustments.

Our first session

During the first session, I spend time getting to know you and gathering information about your background, current concerns, and treatment goals. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions about the therapy process and get a sense of my approach. We'll discuss confidentiality and establish a treatment plan.
