Sue Carlson, MSW, RSW
Therapy & Coaching

Sue Carlson is a registered social worker with a background in education, mental health, and professional editing. As a former math teacher and parent of two neurodiverse daughters, one with ADHD and one on the autism spectrum, she has a great deal of experience supporting folks with learning differences. Along her journey as a parent, as she learned how best to support her daughters, Sue came to recognize her own neurodiversity as a person on the spectrum. 
​
Sue has experience supporting clients with anxiety, OCD, social phobia, depression, grief and loss, LGBTQ+ issues, self-harm, video game/screen addiction, and suicidality. Her experiences as a parent navigating the school system, as a teacher supporting neurodiverse students, and as a client of counselling services give her a solid understanding of systemic barriers and what is and is not helpful.

Sue’s warm and empathetic approach creates a safe space in which clients can identify their unique superpowers and learn 
how to live their best, most authentic life. Her clients express appreciation for her gentle curiosity and her ability to help them make sense of their challenges and find a way forward that is consistent with their values and their true selves.

​Away from work, Sue enjoys cooking (she is currently experimenting to find delicious gluten-free vegan dishes), reading (a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction), exploring her spirituality, and camping in Ontario parks with her lovely daughters.
