Susan Lambert, LCSW

I do not see Susan for individual therapy, but I have participated in three of her groups. I have been a part of Change, Compassion, and Body & Soul groups with Susan. Each group that I have participated in has been 4 weeks long, meeting once a week for 45 – 60 minutes with reflective readings/​questions in between sessions. The groups have ranged in size from 6 – 10 people.
These are the first group sessions that I’ve done, and I absolutely love them! I’m someone who is always nervous and uncomfortable in group settings, but within the first 5 minutes of the first group I participated in, I felt that I was in a warm, open environment where I could speak honestly and not feel judged.
Susan does an excellent job of moving the discussion along without pressuring anyone to speak if they are not comfortable. At the beginning of each group, I find myself thinking that the topic is much to big to successfully explore in four weeks. However, Susan is really skilled in listening to everyone in the group, presenting ideas, and then following the path that our discussions take. These groups are not built around set questions that must be answered in each session… they are an opportunity to explore different aspects of the topics. I love hearing what the other group members have to say… I hear a different perspective in every session. There are never any «right» or «wrong» answers in these groups, and Susan deeply explores each person’s contributions, which gives group members the space to truly explore.
I have taken new perspectives, practices, ways of thinking from each group I’ve been a part of. I have not felt forced to solve some problem or meet a goal, but like I could learn to be more present and openhearted in my everyday life. I love to go back and read the writings we all did between sessions, as they are so honest and beautiful. SInce starting to do groups with Susan, I have become much more actively conscious and open in so many aspects of my life.
Susan is extremely professional, warm, and open. I will continue working in individual therapy AND attending as many groups offered by Susan as I can. I urge others to do the same!

Going to see Susan was one of the best decisions I could have ever made. Hands down. She blends her professional experience, personal care, understand, and wisdom in to a beautiful, holistic practice.
Working together in her safe (And INCREDIBLE peaceful office) I’ve been able to achieve so much in my life. I would recommend her practice to anyone looking to grow and overcome personal barriers.
