Suzanne M. King, MD
Suzanne M. King, MD, provides expert guidance and compassionate care to individuals navigating complex mental health challenges, helping patients achieve stability, improved well-being, and a better quality of life. Serving children, teens, adults, and seniors throughout Missouri, Suzanne supports patients in managing conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and sleep difficulties. She works closely with diverse populations, including men, women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and first responders, offering tailored treatment plans that address both mental health and life circumstances.
Suzanne is particularly passionate about supporting patients recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital. She combines clinical expertise with empathy to guide patients through these often challenging and high-stakes situations, ensuring they feel supported while meeting necessary legal or occupational requirements. Suzanne also helps patients manage conditions such as PTSD/trauma, childhood behavior issues, and post-partum depression/anxiety, using evidence-based interventions. Additional specialties include addressing eating disorders, hoarding, psychosis, and reproductive or later-life transitions.
Outside of her professional work, Suzanne enjoys biking and traveling, which allow her to recharge and bring renewed energy and perspective to her practice.
