About Suzanne

Suzanne Towne is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW, LICSW) with 15 years of experience who focuses on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and mood disorders.

Background and approach

She brings a practical, strengths-based perspective that emphasizes helping clients discover and build on their own resources while offering guidance and structure to reach meaningful goals. Suzanne blends evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered care with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to tailor support to each person’s needs.

Her background includes work across psychiatric and community mental health settings, and she has experience assisting people affected by eating disorders, chemical dependency, and other complex challenges. She aims to create a collaborative, respectful therapeutic relationship where clients direct their path and Suzanne provides the tools and direction to move forward.

Suzanne practices in Tennessee and offers multiple remote session formats to accommodate different preferences. She encourages a conversational, goal-oriented process that balances emotional exploration with practical strategies for coping and change.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions aligned with their values; this approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering concrete tools for managing symptoms of depression, panic, and obsessive patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and calm attention to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, often pairing well with other techniques for stress and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is typically collaborative. Suzanne will work with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level, and she tailors sessions so techniques are practical and personally relevant. Clients and therapist regularly review what is working and adjust the plan together.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so clients can access care from home or other convenient locations. These formats make it easier to maintain regular appointments around busy schedules and to use tools like worksheets, skill practices, and brief check-ins between sessions to support ongoing progress.
