Advanced Clinical Specialist: Trauma, Transitions, & Resilient Parenting
Guidance Through Life’s Most Demanding Seasons
Whether you are navigating a major life transition, processing a profound loss, or feeling overwhelmed by the complexities of parenting, Susan Clark provides a sophisticated, compassionate space for healing. With 25 years of experience across four continents, Susan offers more than just “talk therapy”—she provides a roadmap for adults navigating the most challenging chapters of their lives.
Specialized Care for Women & Adults
Susan has a deep interest in supporting women in transition—whether that is navigating career shifts, relationship changes, or the “empty nest.” Her approach is grounded in:
-
Grief & Loss: Helping you honor your experience while finding a path forward.
-
Trauma Recovery: As a Certified EMDR Therapist, Susan uses cutting-edge techniques to help you move past adverse experiences that still feel “present” in your body and mind.
-
OCD & Anxiety: Providing high-level Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for those struggling with intrusive thoughts and chronic worry.
Support for the “Hardest Job in the World”
If you are parenting a child with complex needs—often called “tough kids”—you don’t just need therapy for them; you need a partner for yourself. Susan blends her expertise as a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor with Parent Coaching to help you:
-
Understand the “why” behind challenging behaviors.
-
Heal attachment wounds within the family.
-
Regain your confidence and calm as a parent.
A Global Perspective on Personal Growth
Susan’s background is as diverse as the clients she serves. Having lived and worked on four continents and raised two children of her own, she brings a rich, cross-cultural perspective to her work. She understands that healing isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s about finding what works for your life, your culture, and your family.
