Hi! My name is Suzanne McKain and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker. As a therapist, I bring my personality into my work with humor, validation, curiosity and warmth. I received my Master's degree from the University of Cincinnati. I specialize in working with adults with anxiety, depression, PTSD, borderline personality disorder and relationship issues. I have training in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) and IPT (Interpersonal Psychotherapy). I take a collaborative and goal oriented approach that balances both acceptance and change. I use evidenced-based therapies and education to help support to you in your goals. I work to build a strong therapeutic relationship and believe that relationship, along with the effort you put into therapy, are the two biggest factors in the effectiveness of therapy.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The first session will be a 60 minute assessment session. The early sessions after that will be a mix of continued assessment, goal setting, orientation, support and intervention. We will work together to help with healing and growth. We will set goals, discussion items, and work at home together. It's also important that you practice what you learn in therapy outside of session, as therapy is only 1 hour a week.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I've worked in a variety of settings such as community mental health, substance abuse residential center, inpatient mental health, psychiatric emergency, and outpatient mental health and substance abuse treatment. I've worked with adults, adolescents, and veterans. I am flexible and work with you to meet your unique needs and goals.
