Helping you feel calm, confident, and in control—one session at a time.
Compassionate therapy for teens, adults, and older adults—offered in-person in Downingtown, PA and virtually across Pennsylvania.
Hey there, I’m Susan Martz.
A licensed therapist, certified school counselor, and yoga and meditation teacher specializing in anxiety, depression, and healing trauma, and PTSD. Along with being a therapist, I support the practice as its Founder. I firmly believe in the mind, body, spirit connection and incorporate this connection into sessions. I am dedicated to supporting teens, adults, and mature adults as they navigate life’s challenges, relationships, past pain, and emotional overwhelm. Whether you’re experiencing persistent anxiety, the weight of depression, or simply feeling stuck and unsure of how to move forward, I’m here to provide a compassionate and understanding space for you. I’ll help you feel confident to tell your story, feel your feelings, and release and heal traumas.
WHO I HELP
I work with teens, adults, and older adults at all stages of their mental health journey. Whether you’re a high school student overwhelmed by anxiety or an older adult navigating grief, life transitions, or long-standing trauma, my services are tailored to meet your unique needs.
You may be battling anxious thoughts and feeling emotionally drained, unsure how to move forward.
Perhaps you’re struggling with past trauma resurfacing as you adjust to a major life change—like retirement, a new diagnosis, or the loss of a loved one.
Education and Experience
I hold a Master of Science in Education (M.S.Ed.) in School and Mental Health Counseling from the University of Pennsylvania, where I graduated in 2013. Prior, I worked in public and private educational settings. My practice was founded in 2018, and rebranded to accept insurance in 2024.
