About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Rhode Island with 7 years of direct psychotherapy experience working with children, adolescents, and families. In addition, I have over 12 years experience mentoring youth and families. I have worked with teens with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, lack of self esteem, self harm and Panic Disorder.

My counseling style is warm, interactive, and goal oriented. I believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion. I also don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling. I also have vast experience with DBT (Dialect Behavioral Therapy) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Suzanne is so approachable and makes therapy easy and flowing. She gave me a lot of worksheets that helped me tackle the issues affecting my life and negative thoughts in a practical, step-by-step way that helped me make real progress on issues that have plagued me my whole life. She is very warm and relatable and helped me feel empowered as a parent, rather than stuck and discouraged.

This is my second time using Suzanne Kane. I’m so glad I got to have her as my therapist again when I needed her most. She is a great listener and challenges me in the way I think and make decisions. Highly recommend her.

Suzanne Kane (LCSW) has surpassed my expectations of therapy on every turn. My first experience with teencounseling.com started off a bit rocky when I chose a therapist that was not a match for me. Suzanne handled the change of counselors brilliantly and I couldn't be happier with the transition. Suzanne 's smart and balanced approach to my counseling has been the reason I am still a teencounseling.com client today. If you want a true professional that will guide you through your journey with empathy and thoughtfulness, Suzanne Kane (LCSW) has shown herself to be more than capable.

Excellent

Written on Oct 01, 2023 after therapy with Suzanne for 4 months on issues concerning relationship

Suzanne has been an excellent therapist in many ways. I feel that she has been critical in facilitating an open and meaningful dialogue between myself and my ex-wife. She has also helped me to better understand my own emotions/reactions to certain situations along with those of my ex. Her experience has also help us to understand what falls under the realm of normal in the situation we are going through and what we should expect and how to manage the situation both for ourselves and our children.
I have never been a proponent of therapy of any kind in the past because it seemed to just stir up trouble and bad feelings. But I feel like with Suzanne the sessions are actually quite helpful in moving forward past the anger, resentment and frustration of our divorce.

Suzanne is a great therapist who truly listened to me and helped me work through issues of self esteem, my relationship with food, and stress and anxiety in my life. She is very much a therapist that gives you homework and ideas to work on.
