In some cases, however, individual counseling and individual relationship counseling sessions can be conducted over the phone or Skype. Marriage counseling and couples counseling sessions must be in person, in my suburban Boston office.
LOGISTICS: I accept no HMO plans whatsoever and participate with no provider networks by choice. Therefore, I am considered an out-of-network provider for all plans. Payment is made at time of service. If you have a PPO policy, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, I will provide you with an official receipt which you can submit to get reimbursement from your insurance company. I offer superior 'customer service'; my focus is on YOU, not administrative work. When insurance is used, clients should know that confidentiality cannot be assured.
Couples Counseling, Marriage Counseling, and Relationship Counseling sessions are $150 and last 50-55 minutes. Individual sessions are $120 and last 45-50 minutes. Extended individual sessions lasting 55 - 60 minutes are $140. Sessions for longer or shorter sessions can be arranged and will be priced accordingly. It is up to the client to know what their deductible and benefits are. Certain discounts may apply; please inquire.

Susan is extremely perceptive and compassionate when it comes to couples counseling. She's a great listener, and has amazing recall. She is skilled at understanding a complex dynamic, and providing just the right common sense advice. She is even-handed, patient, and wise. My wife and I are truly fortunate to have found her.

I have worked with Susan for individual counseling and couples counseling. I can say, without exaggeration, that her combination of empathy, strength, patience, compassion and insight have helped keep my marriage together and my emotional life safe, and my physical health has also improved. I cannot recommend her enthusiastically enough.

During a difficult time in my life - ending a long-term marriage - Susan helped me to clarify and understand my emotions and identify goals. She helped me to anticipate changes and identify options to implement change. Her warm and compassionate manner and steady encouragement guided me from a state of ambivalence and sadness to optimism and strength. Our counseling sessions were tremendously supportive to me.
