Susannah Sherman, LICSW
Specializes In:
Susannah Sherman, LICSW, helps children, adolescents, and teens navigate life’s challenges with a warm, supportive, and clinically informed approach. Serving patients across New Hampshire through LifeStance Health, she provides individual and family therapy for a range of emotional, behavioral, and developmental concerns. Susannah creates a collaborative space where young people and their families feel heard, empowered, and understood. With over three decades of experience, Susannah specializes in treating ADHD, anxiety, and childhood behavior issues. Whether a child is struggling with focus, emotional regulation, or school avoidance, she tailors treatment using evidence-based interventions to meet their developmental and emotional needs. Her work often supports families in managing behavior patterns at home and school, guiding parents toward effective strategies through parenting skills support and family therapy. She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based techniques to help young clients build resilience and coping skills. Susannah is especially passionate about working with children and adolescents who have experienced trauma or loss, and those navigating questions around gender identity or adjusting to life within adoption and foster care systems. These populations often face unique emotional landscapes, and she offers a thoughtful, affirming therapeutic experience designed to promote healing, self-expression, and growth. Her approach supports the mental health of LGBTQ+ youth and fosters a safe space for identity exploration and personal development. Outside the therapy room, Susannah enjoys spending time near the water—whether kayaking, swimming, or walking. She also loves crafting and finds creativity to be a rejuvenating outlet.
