I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 25 years of experience helping individuals heal from heartbreak, narcissistic abuse, family conflict, grief, trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions. My work focuses on identifying and healing the deeper causes of emotional distress, not just managing symptoms.

Susan Lane has given me just what i need. I’ve been working through a divorce after 30 years, my mother passing and also the loss my furry friend. She has a style that requires real work on my part and I have been very willing to put the time in. The results have been very noticeable to my friends, family and myself. I am grateful to have found such a good fit for me. Still have work to do but I’ve come a long way. If you are willing to dig deep and follow her program, Susan Lane should be strongly considered.

As a prior service medic, disabled veteran, military spouse, and mother, I bring humility and compassion to each session. I feel it is a privilege to witness your development in counseling, where you gain insights into your sense of self, work to heal past wounds, and find new ways to lean into your own strengths to develop overall wellness.

Everyone’s story is different, and it is often very difficult to find a therapist that not only has compassion but has such a plethora of knowledge to share. She really listens and tries to provide information that is pertinent to my needs.
