She completed her graduate training in psychology with a focus on adult and adolescent mental health and has worked extensively in hospital and community settings, specializing in trauma, anxiety, mood disorders, and operational stress injuries.

Susan is the Clinical Director of Transcend, an extension of CBT Niagara, where she works with adults seeking relief from long-standing distress as well as those pursuing deeper self-understanding, resilience, and personal growth. Her approach is collaborative and human-centred, drawing from cognitive-behavioural and trauma-informed practices, alongside strengths-based models that support meaningful and lasting change.

Following many years of clinical work, particularly with first responders, Susan integrated psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy into her practice as a careful and ethical extension of traumatreatment. She completed specialized training through the California Institute of Integral Studies, Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research Program as well as Fluence and experiential training through TheraPsil. She practices within current Canadian and Ontario regulatory
frameworks. Her approach emphasizes careful assessment, ethical practice, thorough preparation, and integrative follow-up, with the goal of helping people reconnect with themselves, restore balance, and move forward with greater clarity and wholeness.
