I believe therapy should be a safe space for you to work towards your goals, without any judgment. Rather than feeling alone, a therapist should assist you on your journey to build the life you have envisioned, while understanding that you are the expert in your own life. I will be that therapist for you. I am passionate about assisting others to understand how their past impacts their current, in order to move forward to their future. I have experience working with those who have experienced trauma, endure the daily challenges of depression, anxiety, ADHD, and borderline personality disorder, and/or deal with LGBTQ+ issues.

Taking your first step toward healing is often the most challenging and here you are! I have over 25 years of experience providing therapeutic services to individuals of all ages. I earned a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Springfield College in Springfield, MA in 2004 and I became licensed in the state of New Jersey in 2008 as a Licensed Professional Counselor. My current focus is to provide therapy to individuals ages 5 to 65+ and over.

Susan Goodwin is a highly qualified and experienced therapist holding licenses as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC).

Come and start your journey towards a better life. I will help you develop resilience and strengthen your inner core. I will work with you to develop problem solving skills, and learn effective communication skills. I am an empathetic listener with over 10 years of experience in this field.

Reconnecting with your own inner voice is one of the most meaningful things therapy

can offer. My role is to be a compassionate witness and guide as you build awareness,

develop meaningful insight, and create a life that feels authentic and aligned with your

values. Throughout our lives, our own beliefs, needs, and intuition can become

overshadowed by the expectations and experiences of others. This can leave us feeling

disconnected from ourselves and contribute to feelings of anxiety, sadness, confusion,

or isolation. I am passionate about helping individuals rediscover their strengths, build

self-trust, and develop the confidence to move forward with greater clarity and self-

compassion. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, low

self-esteem, self-harm, trauma, parenting challenges, divorce, and family or

relationship concerns. I incorporate a holistic, mind-body approach into my work by

exploring the connection between emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations. I

believe our bodies often communicate experiences that words alone cannot fully

express, and developing awareness of these signals can be an important part of healing

and growth. I am proud to provide an affirming, inclusive space for individuals from diverse and

marginalized communities. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
