Susan Futterman

Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, MS, LMFT
Accepting new clients Last Updated Today

My practice focuses on working with individuals dealing with trauma, grief, suicide loss, anxiety, depression, and dissociative disorders.

My approach is founded in psychodynamic theory—exploring and understanding what is stopping you from being the person you want to be. However, depending on the individual, I also draw from other approaches, including
- somatic—understanding how the body holds emotions and/or trauma and helping it to rid itself of these negative experiences;
- existentia therapyl—helping people find meaning in their lives; and
- cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)—helping to change behaviors that do not serve you.

Specialties

Anxiety Depression Dissociative Disorders Dual diagnosis

Insurance & Payment

In-Network Insurance Plans

Susan Futterman is not an in-network provider for any insurance plans. Some insurance plans have out-of-network benefits that cover part of the cost of these visits.

Paperwork:

I can provide you with paperwork for reimbursement from your insurance company if you are seeking out-of-network sessions.

Rates

Sliding Scale Offered: A sliding scale fee "slides" to try to meet the needs of clients who are unable to pay the full fee. Details can be discussed upon consultation.
