Suzane Thomas

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I am a Licensed Social Worker with over 16 years of experience in the social work field. I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from Rutgers University and my Doctorate in Social Work from Capella University. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds who are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and trauma.

I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up as you are without fear of judgment. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore the experiences that have shaped you while developing the tools needed to move forward.

Psychologist

At the core of what I do is helping people build a different relationship with anxiety. Whether you’re an adult navigating OCD, a young person overwhelmed by social anxiety, or a mom lying awake at night replaying everything you said that day (and wondering if you’ve ruined your child forever), you are very much not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hi, I’m Jilian a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 7 years of experience as a practicing clinician.

I offer telehealth psychotherapy for individuals of all ages who are navigating complex emotions, trauma, recovery, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a space that feels safe, compassionate, and empowering.

I specialize in supporting clients experiencing anxiety, other mood disorders, addiction & recovery, ADHD, trauma, and crisis-related issues. I support fellow caregivers and helping professionals who need space to process their own pain. I also incorporate elements of Gottman Method Couples Therapy for clients navigating relationship challenges.

My experience in crisis intervention and emergency psychiatric care has given me a deep respect for the resilience it takes to keep going, even when things feel impossible. I aim to create a space where you can be honest without fear of judgment and begin to rewrite the stories that have kept you stuck.

Outside of therapy I’m passionate about music, tarot, astrology, animals, spirituality, and connecting with nature as forms of self-reflection and grounding.
