ABOUT ME

ABOUT  ME

SUSAN HOUCK STROM, MA, LMFT, ATR
​

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Clinical Art Therapist and come with over 19 years experience in the mental health field.  I served as Director of Clinical Administration and Quality Assurance with multiple stints at Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services and Ocean Park Community Centers located in Los Angeles, CA.  For three years I ran the training program for MFT, MSW and Psy.D Interns from UCLA, USC, Pepperdine University, UC Northridge and Antioch University.  In 2013, my family and I moved to Whidbey Island.  I now divide my time between Providence Hospital Center for Assault and Abuse in Everett, and my  private  practice in Langley.

 

I earned my MA from Loyola Marymount University where I trained both as a Marriage and Family Therapist and Clinical Art Therapist. Professionally, I focus on increasing care and service for underserved populations, and on developing partnerships and collaborations among nonprofit organizations, government entities, and community resources. 

 

My affiliations and certifications include AAMFT,  AATA and EMDRIA.  I am a WAMFT Certified Child Specialist and Certified Supervisor, as well as a DBHR Mental Health Professional and Child Mental Health Specialist.

MY APPROACH

MY  APPROACH

I work with individuals, couples and families using various theoretical models that support a strength based, family focused and holistic approach. I am interested in relationships, partner/family interactions, and in other systems in which clients participate, such as school, work and community.  I am interested in the course of my client’s overall development, in patterns of behaviors, and exploring what barriers are interfering at this time while working to create meaningful goals and pathways that support desired change. 

 

My work can be either short or long term depending on the therapeutic issues and your own personal needs.
