About Suzanne

Dr. Suzanne Cormier brings 26 years of experience as a helping professional and holds a doctoral degree (PhD) along with her Licensed Professional Counselor credential (LPC) in South Carolina. She offers an interactive and supportive counseling style grounded primarily in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, while drawing from an integrative skill set to tailor care to each person’s needs and comfort level. Her work focuses on building strengths and resilience, helping clients navigate anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, grief, parenting challenges, life transitions, and issues related to adoption, foster care, aging, and identity including LGBT matters.

Dr. Cormier’s background includes individual counseling, life coaching, university teaching, and student advising, which informs her practical, developmentally informed approach to positive self-development and transition adjustment. She often works with people who are new to counseling and emphasizes a respectful partnership in which client and counselor collaborate to set goals and find solutions. Her aim is to foster positive change through motivational support, skills development, and occasional lightness—finding time to laugh and smile as part of well-being.

Sessions are offered by video or phone on weekdays at a range of times, and scheduling is arranged to find a convenient time for the initial appointment. Dr. Cormier looks forward to working with individuals seeking growth, support, and forward movement.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Cormier commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy, and she also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy when appropriate. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve coping with stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a respectful, nonjudgmental partnership that builds self-awareness and confidence by following the client's pace and priorities. Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports understanding and reshaping emotional responses in relationships, which can be helpful for couples and family concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Cormier collaborates with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then integrates techniques that best support those aims. This collaborative stance helps tailor the work and adjust methods as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for scheduling and participation. Sessions can occur by video call or phone, and options such as live chat or text-based messaging may be available for ongoing support and check-ins. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, access care from home or elsewhere, and maintain continuity of support across life changes.
