About Suzanne

Suzanne Walker is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 18 years of practice based in North Carolina. She has worked across multiple service settings, providing individual, group, and family counseling and supporting people with mental health diagnoses as well as substance use concerns.

Background and approach

Her background includes roles in outpatient mental health, community support teams, and treatment centers where she worked with clients receiving Medication Assisted Therapy (MAT). Suzanne blends practical, evidence-informed techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood conditions, substance use, and related life challenges.

She draws from client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness practice, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to tailor work to each person’s goals. Suzanne offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based sessions and maintains weekday, evening, and some Saturday morning availability to accommodate different schedules.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Suzanne uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness as core parts of her practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood and to build practical coping skills. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and self-compassion techniques that can help with stress regulation, emotional reactivity, and coping with chronic pain or persistent worry.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Suzanne works with clients to explore which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so the work stays relevant and effective for each individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to continue care from home. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured CBT exercises, guided mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing conversations, and focused solution-oriented planning without requiring travel, helping clients maintain consistency and momentum in their work.
