My name is Suzanne Elia-Hoyes. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Board Certified Counselor (NCC), and Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). Over the last 24 years, I have worked as a professional school counselor, a licensed professional counselor in a school setting and private practice, and a BCBA. These roles have allowed me to respond to the needs of diverse individuals, including those considered “at-risk” and those with special needs, through the primary interventions of individual and small-group counseling.

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

As a LPC and BCBA, it is important to establish trust and rapport with my clients. My primary objective in a therapeutic relationship is connecting with clients in a way that creates a climate of trust. It will be an ongoing process that will begin with the first session.

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

I emphasize counseling goals that are tailored to the unique needs of the client. I focus on building a therapeutic relationship so that my clients can make personal growth and improve their mental and emotional well-being.
