About Suzanne

Suzanne Towne is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Tennessee and holds an LICSW credential as well. She has 15 years of experience listed and helps people with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, bipolar disorder, depression, and coping with life changes.

Suzanne uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She draws on several approaches including acceptance and commitment work, cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, client-centered listening, and solution-focused strategies. Sessions focus on concrete goals and steps people can try between meetings.

She has a long background in mental health going back to work as a psychiatric nurse and later as a therapist. That history includes inpatient psychiatric care, eating disorder and chemical dependency settings, and community mental health work with foster care and therapeutic foster parents. That variety informs how she frames treatment plans and problems in everyday terms.

Suzanne describes therapy as collaborative. She helps people identify options and choose what fits their life and values. Conversations tend to emphasize communication skills, problem-solving, and coping tools that can be used at home and at work.

She prefers live video or phone sessions rather than text-based chat for ongoing therapy. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session options and scheduling details so they match their needs.

BHow sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches work for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and decide what matters most to them. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life changes by focusing on values and small actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches skills to change them. CBT is commonly used for depression, panic, and difficult coping responses.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Suzanne will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. She will collaborate on a plan and adjust methods as needed so the work fits the client's daily life and priorities.

Her profile notes a preference for live video and phone sessions rather than text chat. If you are considering online options, confirm the current session formats and scheduling before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow a quick check-in during a work break, or avoid travel time. The therapist will help shape sessions so they are practical and usable between meetings.
