Your current challenge can be a doorway for deep, meaningful change.

Feel stronger inside and out.

Unresolved issues can leave you feeling depleted and overwhelmed. My clients enjoy a safe place to work through complicated life issues so they can feel more clear and resilient.

Get control of destructive patterns.

If addictive or compulsive relationships with alcohol, drugs, sex, or porn are keeping you from living a fulfilled, vibrant life, I can help you develop strategies and solutions to make changes.

Develop better relationships.

The quality of your relationships directly inform your hopes for the future. In therapy, we’ll shine a light on what’s holding you back from healthy connection and joyful intimacy.

FIND YOUR WAY AGAIN.

I’m Andy Sussman and I’m glad you’re here.

Seeking therapy is an act of courage. It tells me that you value yourself and are considering making some life changes that feel necessary but overwhelming. Maybe you even wonder if transforming the way you live is realistic or actually possible.

After more than 15 years helping my clients gain control of their inner struggles, I can tell you with certainty...

Changing how you approach, navigate, and respond to the parts of your life that aren’t working is absolutely possible.

Even if you feel lost right now.
Even if you’ve made some mistakes.
Even if you’ve tried and quit and tried and quit.
You’ve got what it takes. You just need the right strategies and support.

ONLINE OR IN-PERSON APPOINTMENTS
