About Suzie

Suzie Amacker is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 15 years of practice who combines clinical training and life coaching experience to help clients navigate stressful transitions and persistent struggles.

Background and approach

She frames challenges as opportunities for learning and partners with people to build practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, ADHD-related difficulties, and other life disruptions. Her background includes work in teaching, therapy, and coaching, which contributes to a patient, solution-oriented style.

Suzie emphasizes a respectful, accepting therapeutic relationship and aims to create an encouraging environment where clients can explore their values, coping strategies, and goals. She draws on evidence-based methods alongside mindfulness and hypnotherapy tools to help clients increase awareness, reduce avoidance, and take actionable steps toward change.

Prospective clients are invited to begin when they feel ready to work toward clearer priorities and improved functioning, with the expectation that therapy is a collaborative process focused on real-world results.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and commit to meaningful action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, panic, and anxiety and to build practical coping skills. Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness through simple practices that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then adapt techniques from these models to create a tailored plan. Clients are treated as partners in deciding which strategies feel most useful and sustainable.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase access and flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and allow clients to continue work on skills between meetings with different communication options to match comfort and logistics.
