Suzanne Knapp

Suzanne Knapp is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with twelve years of experience in social work and psychotherapy. She has practiced in a range of settings including foster care, group residences, domestic violence shelters, schools, assisted living, outpatient clinics, and private practice. Suzanne focuses on helping people who want clearer purpose, stronger self-esteem, and better understanding of themselves.

She uses a straightforward, interactive style in sessions. Suzanne likes to set personal and practical goals with each person. Goals come from the client's interests, skills, and priorities rather than from other people's expectations.

Suzanne draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to look at how thoughts and behaviors connect. She also uses client-centered and solution-focused approaches to keep conversations grounded and useful. Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques sometimes shape the work when people want to explore values or change habits.

People come to Suzanne for a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, sleep struggles, grief, trauma, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, career challenges, and mood differences including depression and bipolar. She also addresses topics like compassion fatigue, first responder issues, blended family concerns, and life purpose.

Sessions aim to be collaborative and practical. Suzanne often combines coaching and therapy-style conversation to support coping skills, clearer communication, and small habit changes. She invites people who want an engaged listener and a plan for moving forward.
