Introduction

Hi, I'm Susie (she/her) — a trauma therapist, yoga teacher, and dance instructor based in Pittsburgh. I began this work to support people in reconnecting with themselves after trauma, disconnection, or burnout. My background in movement and somatics shapes a body-based, relational, and feminist approach to healing — one grounded in autonomy, justice, and compassion. I specialize in working with adults navigating complex trauma, C/PTSD, neurodivergence, and identity exploration, with extensive experience supporting survivors of sexual and gender-based violence and individuals involved in sex work. My work draws from EMDR, parts work, and somatic therapy, and I'm currently accepting new sex therapy clients. Through Full Expression Therapies, I offer both in-person and virtual sessions. I believe quality care should be accessible, and offer a sliding scale to reflect that. I'd love to connect — reach out to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.
