Dr. Chi is a warm, engaging, and compassionate psychologist who specializes in treating depression, anxiety, and trauma. She also trains mental health graduate students from accredited programs to provide trauma-informed therapy that takes into account our clients’ full experience as individuals, including social, cognitive, medical, cultural, and developmental factors.

Client & Professional Testimonials

"I have struggled with depression my entire life, and no psychologist has been able to help me like Susan. With her kindness and professionalism, I was able to get through the most challenging time of my life. Sessions with Susan were life-changing and something I looked forward to every week. I wouldn’t be where I am now without her. I’ll be grateful forever.”
H.T.Former Individual Therapy Client
Dr. Chi is a dedicated, supportive, and empathetic provider who truly listens to her patients and provides empirically-based treatments tailored to her patients' needs. Her ability to give diagnostically accurate assessments, alongside thoughtful treatment recommendations, further adds to her already impressive skill set!
Alice Perez, PhDLicensed Clinical Neuropsychologist, Neurology Department, Yale University
Having worked with many therapists before, I never thought that it was possible to achieve results without spending many months to years in therapy; but, Susan was able to help me feel more centered and at peace in just a few sessions using somatic techniques.
S.C.Former Individual Therapy Client
"I struggled with gender dysphoria, and for years I fretted about whether or not to transition - or what transition could even look like for me. But after seeing Dr. Susan Chi I found the courage to make the choices that were best for me. To this day, I am satisfied with the decisions I made while seeing her."
P.A.Former Individual Therapy Client
Susan set the stage for compassionate listening and emotional connection in our marriage. She really understood us as a couple, as well as who we are individually in terms of our backgrounds and cultures. Susan helped us work through a lot of anger, coldness, and pain and helped us learn how to help each see how our dynamic wasn't working, as well as where it came from, and how to use new ways of relating to build security and trust. Thank you.

"My time with Susan has been life-changing. Her sessions are something that I look forward to each week, and never fail to provide me with confidence, energy, and a new understanding of my own thoughts and emotions. She is an incredible listener who has provided me with a sense of control in my life. I truly couldn't imagine this past year without her."
G.S.Former Individual Therapy Client
Dr. Chi is kind, professional, and puts you at ease. She really cares and sees the best in your relationship. She helped gain our relationship back. Even though it was hard for me to learn to listen, heal, and eventually forgive my husband...and it was hard for him to put his anxiety and guilt aside to support me - we learned so much about each other in the process. I feel stronger and more secure and ready to move on.
C.B. & F.R.Former Couples Therapy Clients
Dr. Susan Chi is a thoughtful and compassionate clinician who is adept at understanding the complexity of trauma within a framework that is mindful of intersectionality and individuation. Her experience working with diverse military and civilian populations provides foundational knowledge from which Dr. Chi more fully assesses, consults, and treats all individuals. With this open mindset, Dr. Chi skillfully meets patients where they are in order to cultivate meaningful change. In addition to the delight of witnessing clinical progress with her patients, collaborating with Dr. Chi is intellectually invigorating and exciting.
