About Suzie
Suzie Amacker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people untangle stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She also supports those facing life transitions, career crossroads, identity questions, and struggles with addiction or self-esteem.
Suzie favors clear, practical work in sessions. She listens first, then offers tools people can use between meetings. Her style blends goal-focused strategies with gentle acceptance so clients can try things at their own pace.
How Suzie works
Clients often bring worries about parenting, family conflict, grief, intimacy, or adjusting to aging and retirement. Suzie also works with issues such as ADHD, panic attacks, body image, and gender dysphoria. She uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs rather than one fixed method.
In sessions she may use cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices to help people notice what matters most and act on it. Hypnotherapy and solution-focused ideas can appear when they fit the goal.
Suzie aims to create a respectful, encouraging space where people feel heard and guided. She offers appointments by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

Online support options
How these approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward them even when feelings are hard. Online ACT sessions tend to focus on practical exercises and short values-based goals that can be tried between appointments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns; it works well for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns and often includes homework exercises to practice. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase focus, which pairs naturally with brief check-ins and guided practice during sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That might mean mixing ACT, CBT, and mindfulness or trying hypnotherapy for specific issues; adjustments happen as progress is made.
Online formats offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations for deeper work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter updates, coping prompts, and ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or mobility needs while keeping the focus on practical change.
