Susan LeClair , LMFT

Susan LeClair is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 22 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through a wide range of life challenges. She has worked extensively in crisis intervention and addresses concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, divorce, gender identity and gay orientation issues, co-parenting and blended family matters, relational conflict, domestic violence, trauma, sexual abuse, fertility and adoption questions, and career and life transitions.

As an LMFT, she brings training focused on relationships and family systems and applies that perspective when helping clients clarify goals and build practical coping skills. Her practice emphasizes ethical care and a non-judgmental stance, creating space for people to explore difficult emotions and make meaningful changes. When a presenting issue falls outside her scope, she will provide referrals to professionals who may be a better fit.

Susan believes that a sense of comfort and trust between therapist and client is essential for progress. She works collaboratively with clients who are ready to face their concerns, supporting internal change and helping them move toward better functioning and greater well-being. She looks forward to working with prospective clients seeking practical, compassionate support.
