About Sue

Sue (Suzanne) Trezevant is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, with three years of documented practice under the current credential. She focuses on family concerns, stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, career questions, depression, and coping with life changes. Her work also includes attention to adoption and foster care, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, family of origin issues, and workplace difficulties.

Sue uses a client-centered approach. Sessions are practical and straightforward. She listens for patterns that started in the family of origin and looks at how they affect current choices and relationships. Conversations can include communication practice, managing strong emotions, and planning steps for change.

Her trauma-focused work addresses the aftereffects of difficult experiences. This involves pacing conversations, noticing triggers, and building ways to handle stressful moments. The emphasis is on what helps a person feel more in control day to day rather than labels or tests.

Sue aims to help people sort through relationship patterns, grief, career crossroads, and intense feelings like anger or shame. She draws on client-centered listening to identify strengths and next steps. Sessions often cover concrete skills for communication, boundaries, and coping with change.

Sue practices in Illinois and works in English. The profile notes three years of experience with the LCSW credential. Before booking, people should confirm current session options and scheduling details for their situation.

How her approaches inform online work

Sue uses client-centered therapy, which means sessions focus on the person's experience and priorities. This approach supports conversations about family roles, communication patterns, and decisions people want to make. It is useful when someone wants practical feedback and clearer next steps.

She also employs trauma-focused therapy, which pays attention to how past difficult events affect current feelings and reactions. In practice this can mean slowing the pace, noticing triggers, and developing concrete skills to manage flashbacks, distress, or intense emotions.

Deciding on the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then use client-centered and trauma-focused ideas as fits the person’s needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose a quieter time without travel. Licensed professionals often adapt pacing and contact frequency to match work schedules, parenting demands, or recovery from difficult experiences.
