Taking the step to seek support is a courageous move, and I want to applaud you for it. I know everyone has a different story, and I'm here to honor and respect yours. As your therapist, my focus is on creating a collaborative and caring space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions. In our sessions, we can delve into your experiences, tackle obstacles, discover fresh perspectives, and uncover the strengths within you. Being a black woman, I recognize the significance of your identity and am dedicated to honoring each person’s story.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in EMDR therapy to help individuals heal from trauma and narcissistic abuse, and to return to a place of self-love and emotional balance. Experiences of childhood physical, emotional or sexual abuse can remain stuck in the body, as can instances of narcissistic abuse. These have the potential to contribute to symptoms of depression, anxiety, and hypervigilance as well as problems successfully navigating relationships and managing daily living. I utilize EMDR therapy to change the way these negative memories are stored in the brain, and help you achieve a place of resolution and peace. As a neuropsychologist, I can help you condition your thoughts and rewire your brain for happiness and success.
