Hello! My name is Sue, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Psychologist.
Working in the field for over a decade, I thoroughly appreciate the opportunity to work with people who need support. Psychotherapy can help make lasting changes and immensely impact our lives. Therapy is a partnership of working together to create goals, using evidence-based treatment to help us meet those goals, and providing techniques and skills you can learn to apply independently.
When working with you in therapy, I aim to help you learn tools and strategies to think better, feel better, and eventually be your own therapist.
I specialize in treatment for older adolescents, young adults, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship stressors, parenting/caregiver stressors, chronic pain, behavioral issues, academic stressors, occupational stressors, and life transitions.
I also specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which addresses the connection between our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions and makes dynamic changes to help improve our lives. I also have experience using Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and use different techniques depending on the specific goals we identify during our sessions together.
I aim to collaborate and make your therapy experience feel positive, rewarding, challenging, and meaningful. I strive to be empathetic, open-minded, warm, accepting, and comforting while knowing where to push when needed. I am fortunate to support anyone who is willing to be open, put in the effort, and trust me to help you make a change.
I earned my Doctorate and Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology from Widener University and my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from King’s College. I have had various training experiences throughout my education and career. I’ve worked with people from a wide variety of populations, backgrounds, and socioeconomic statuses.
I enjoy spending time with my two young children, husband, and dog when I’m not working. I’m a natural homebody and enjoy good TV, movies, and documentaries. I also love cooking, dance parties with my kiddos, and enjoying the beauty of nature with long walks and fresh air.

Dr. Susan Minnick offers online therapy sessions to anyone in Pennsylvania.
Whether you are suffering from panic attacks, obsessive – compulsive disorder, or generalized anxiety we have therapists who use evidenced-based treatments, such as cognitive-bahavioral therapy, to help you.
Depression, one of the most common mental health disorders, is very treatable. Our therapists are specially trained to help individuals with depression get back to feeling like themselves again.
Life transitions encompass many things, including starting or ending a romantic relationship, changes with work or school or making any big life change, such as a move. Often we underestimate how these changes will affect us emotionally until we find ourselves struggling with the ups and downs of the life transition.
While we don’t provide couples counseling at Move Forward, many individuals seek counseling to discuss how they can have healthier relationships. Our therapists can help you learn new ways of communicating, setting boundaries, and other ways to have more positive relationships with others.
Caregiving for a loved one can be challenging even in the best of circumstances. Often we don’t think about how the caregiver needs support, too. If you are experiencing burnout, our therapists can teach you skills to help you cope.
Depression and anxiety are extremely common, but often under-diagnosed by medical providers during pregnancy and postpartum. Our providers have specialized training to help women with anxiety and depression in this specific period in their lives.
Moving into adulthood brings its own set of challenges. You may feel pressure to have a “career” or find your life partner. You may be unsure of making these big life decisions and may feel lost because you no longer have school or other adults in your life telling you what you should choose.
Reach out today to get started. Our supportive staff will help guide you through the scheduling process, discuss special requests and consult your insurance needs.
