Also known as “The Rocks, the small borough of McKees Rocks is located in Allegheny County along the banks of the Ohio River in western Pennsylvania. McKees Rocks got its name from Alexander McKee, who was a trader who served as an Indian agent and was given a large piece of land in 1764. It was also on a rocky bluff over the river, which is where the second part of the name came from.

Susan Frey
I have been a therapist for over 16 years. I received my master’s degree in counseling psychology from Seton Hall University, and my Bachelor of Science degree from York College of Pennsylvania. However, this is a career change for me. This change was brought about by a sudden disruption to my life. As a therapist I have experience in treating addictions, anxiety, depression, stress, grief, bipolar disorder, anger management, and more. I employ cognitive behavioral therapy, most of the time. However, depending on the client and their needs I may use short term solution focused therapy or ACT. What is important to me to is for you, the client, to reach your goals and lead a more fulfilling, satisfying life. Let me help you to become a better you.
