PLEASE NOTE: I only have availability for am appointments. Ty. Are you feeling stuck? Does traditional "talk therapy" not meet your needs? Are you seeking a more faster groundbreaking path to healing? Whether you are struggling with a certain short-term issue you are encountering in your life or you need deep transformative work to release long existing pain, I can help. If you are really wanting to work on issues and have time for journaling/homework, committed to weekly sessions, and open to constructive feedback, we would work well together. Please note: I do not work with personality disorders, abusive individuals (I only work with victims and you must be detached from your partner), and I do not do couple's counseling on this platform. I'm Susan Lane, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Florida with over 27 years of experience. I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families overcome obstacles, trauma, mend broken hearts, and improve relationships. I also help clients who seem to be attracted to toxic relationships, especially Narcissistic Abuse. My Approach: I offer a unique modality called Integrative Trauma Therapy, which blends traditional therapeutic techniques with holistic and spiritual practices. This approach addresses your needs on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels, facilitating profound and comprehensive healing.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Honesty and Check-Ins: Regular check-ins and honesty are essential for progress. We will work together as a team to set and achieve your goals.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have years of experience. I like to incorporate holistic practices to help you with anxiety and depression.

My treatment methods

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Internal Family System is a wonderful way to understand patterns, reactions, attachments styles, and how they affect your current relationships and connections to others stemming from your family system. Inner Child work is a therapeutic approach that focuses on addressing and healing unresolved childhood wounds and traumas. It involves reconnecting with and nurturing the inner child aspect of oneself to promote healing and emotional growth. In the context of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, Inner Child work is often incorporated as a way to understand and heal specific parts of the internal system that may be associated with childhood experiences. Within the framework of IFS, the inner child is considered one of the parts or sub-personalities that make up the individual's psyche. During IFS therapy sessions, individuals may explore their inner child parts, acknowledging and understanding the emotions, memories, and beliefs associated with them. The therapist helps clients establish a compassionate and nurturing relationship with their inner child parts, allowing for healing and integration within the internal system. By working with the inner child within the framework of IFS, individuals can address past wounds, release emotional burdens, and develop a greater sense of self-awareness and wholeness. This process can lead to profound personal growth and emotional healing.
