About Suzie
Suzie Amacker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about next steps.

Background and approach
Suzie uses approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered methods. She also draws on hypnotherapy and mindfulness practices when they fit a persons goals. These methods are used to address things like mood shifts, panic, grief, and struggles with purpose or self-esteem.
People come to Suzie for help with parenting concerns, addiction issues, career changes, and navigating life transitions. She also addresses intimacy-related issues, gender and sexual identity matters, and aging and geriatric topics. Her background includes work in teaching, coaching, and counseling, which informs a practical, down-to-earth approach.
Therapy with Suzie is collaborative. She works with each person to set clear goals and tries different strategies until a workable plan emerges. The focus is on small, meaningful changes that make daily life more manageable.

How Suzies Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts without being driven by them, then move toward actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, life changes, and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which often helps with panic, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the clients lead and helps them find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Suzie treats the choice of methods as a collaborative decision based on a persons goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She will try straightforward techniques first and adjust work over time to fit what helps most.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, coaching-style support, or when someone prefers written check-ins. These formats offer flexibility to meet regularly, practice skills between sessions, and keep progress moving even with a packed schedule.
