About me

I am licensed in California with 35 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, trauma and abuse, & intimacy related issues. The methods I use include traditional talk therapy, Energy Psychology (EMDR, Tapping, and The Emotion code) as well as Clinical Hypnosis. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
Because I am semi-retired my available times are limited. Also, I do not work with court cases or fill out forms.
I hope you can find what you need.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Carol Suter. From the very first session, she made me feel heard, understood, and genuinely cared for. She has a compassionate, nonjudgmental approach that creates a safe space to open up, and her insights have been truly life changing.

Dr. Suter doesn’t just listen she helps me understand my emotions, recognize patterns, and develop practical tools to manage my mental health. Her guidance has given me confidence in myself and my ability to navigate challenges in a healthier way.

If you’re looking for a therapist who is kind, supportive, and incredibly skilled, I highly recommend Dr. Suter. She has made such a positive impact on my life, and I am so grateful to have found her!

I feel Dr. Suter is a great match for me. I wanted someone with a lot of life experience to help me with a wide variety of issues in my life, including work, family, and spouse. She's been wonderful and really understands and relates to what I'm telling her. She's helped me reframe my anxious thoughts to something more hopeful and positive.
