Susanne Eisenhart, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Susanne!

I’m a trauma-focused therapist who helps clients heal from painful experiences, better understand themselves, and create meaningful change in their lives. I incorporate EMDR along with a compassionate, individualized approach to help clients process trauma, feel more grounded, and move forward with greater confidence and connection.

My focus

I work with young adults and adults who are navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, or feeling stuck. I provide a safe, compassionate space to process difficult experiences, build coping skills, and develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and emotional well-being.

My approach

My approach is warm, compassionate, and trauma-focused. I use EMDR and other evidence-based approaches, tailoring treatment to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll create a safe, collaborative space to process difficult experiences, build healthier coping skills, and help you feel more grounded, empowered, and confident.

My communication style

I offer a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. I listen with curiosity and empathy, while offering thoughtful feedback and gentle guidance. My goal is to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout your healing journey.

My journey to mental healthcare

My own experiences with trauma and life’s challenges inspired me to pursue mental healthcare and help others feel seen, understood, and supported. As a trauma-focused therapist trained in EMDR, I’m passionate about creating a safe space for healing. I’m continually inspired by my clients’ courage, growth, and resilience.

My goals for you

We’ll work together to identify meaningful goals that fit your needs and values. As life changes, your goals can evolve too. I’ll help you stay motivated by celebrating progress, addressing challenges, and adjusting our approach along the way.

Our first session

The first session is a comfortable, judgment-free opportunity to share what’s been going on and what you hope to work on. We’ll talk about your history, goals, and what you need from therapy. If you’re feeling nervous, that’s okay—I’ll help you feel safe, supported, and at ease.
