More about Suzanne
- 14 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW, LICSW
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker licensed in Rhode Island and Massachusetts with 7 years of direct psychotherapy experience working with individuals from many backgrounds and ages. In addition, I have over 12 years experience mentoring youth and families and over 8 years as a life coach for women struggling with health and body issues. I have worked with individuals with a wide range of concerns including depression, relationship and intimacy issues, sexual dysfunction, parenting problems, discipline strategies, trauma related issues and borderline personality disorder. I also specialize in anxiety related disorders as I have experienced the toll that stress and anxiety can take on your everyday life.
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!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Patient, creates a natural safe space without judgement, listens and positively believes. Just a nice person with a desire to serve God and help others be free.
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 is so great to work with. She openly listens and offers self perspective; never judging or making me feel uncomfortable to share my deepest thoughts and feelings. I am so lucky Betterhelp perfectly matched me with Suzanne!!
Suzanne Kane (LCSW) has surpassed my expectations of therapy on every turn. My first experience with Betterhelp 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 Betterhelp 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.

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. With different providers in the past, I felt like I had sessions but no concrete ways to work on my issues, but working with Suzanne has been really positive, gives me exercises and ideas to work on, and I recommend her!
Therapy should be a safe place to express and build upon who you are. Suzanne Kane creates that environment, and helps you move forward in life. She is attentive with a calming personality. With her, you are in good hands.
