Suzanne Towne , LCSW, LICSW

Suzanne Towne is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma, grief, and women's issues. She brings 15 years of experience as a therapist and a long history in mental health care to each session. Suzanne works with a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns and aims to create a clear path forward for each person she meets.

Suzanne frames therapy as a collaborative process. She believes people often have the answers they need and benefit from guidance to find them. Sessions focus on practical strategies tailored to what the client prefers and what helps them reach their goals. The therapist adapts methods so each person can move at a comfortable pace.

Her background includes many roles in mental health settings. Suzanne has experience with inpatient psychiatric care and community mental health, and she has supported people with eating disorders, chemical dependency, and serious psychiatric conditions. She has also worked with foster families and those involved in therapeutic foster care.

In sessions she may draw on techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused approaches. The emphasis is on straightforward tools clients can use between sessions to manage symptoms and cope with life changes.

Suzanne practices in Tennessee and offers sessions in English. She provides therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then move toward values-based action; it can help with anxiety, depression, and challenges like low self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, which is useful for panic, worry, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build understanding and confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Suzanne collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions stay relevant to current needs and priorities.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people benefit from face-to-face conversation when schedules allow. Phone sessions can fit into busy days or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging provide short check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and reachable alongside work, parenting, and other commitments.
