Sue (Suzanne) Trezevant

Sue (Suzanne) Trezevant helps people facing big life changes and painful relationship shifts. She works with concerns such as divorce and separation, grief, anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, and problems with intimacy and communication. Sue writes plainly and listens closely so people can talk through what matters most to them.

Sue uses a client-centered way of working. That means sessions focus on the person in front of her and their goals. She also draws on trauma-focused approaches when earlier hurts affect daily life and relationships. Conversations are practical and paced to what each person can handle.

Sue is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Illinois. Her background includes long experience with domestic violence, conflict resolution, neglect, sexual abuse, and family communication challenges. She brings that history into sessions as context rather than a script.

People who see Sue often want clearer communication, safer boundaries, or help managing strong feelings like anger and shame. She also supports career stress, compassion fatigue, and questions about life purpose. Work in therapy can include problem-solving, building coping skills, and naming past events that still have an impact.

Her style is steady and respectful. She helps each person set small, achievable goals and checks in about what is or is not helpful. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on her availability.

How client-centered and trauma-focused work translates online

Sue uses client-centered therapy, which means she centers sessions on the person’s needs, goals, and strengths. This approach helps people who want clearer communication, better boundaries, or practical problem-solving around life changes.

She also uses trauma-focused therapy when past hurt continues to affect daily life. That work often involves carefully naming what happened, tracking how the body and feelings react, and building skills to manage strong emotions. It can help with grief, abuse, and ongoing anxiety related to past events.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sue will listen to a person’s history, goals, and day-to-day limits, and then help pick methods that fit. She checks in about how the work is going and adjusts the plan as needed.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during a lunch break or between appointments.
