About Suzanna
Suzanna Bagley is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 12 years of clinical experience to her practice in Illinois. She greets clients with an easygoing manner and a practical focus on problem solving. Her approach mixes direct guidance with warmth so people feel heard while working toward real change.
Suzanna earned both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in clinical psychology. She draws from cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts that affect mood and anxiety.
Background and approach
She also uses solution-focused techniques when someone wants shorter-term work aimed at concrete goals. When trauma is part of someone’s story, she uses trauma-focused methods to identify triggers and develop ways to manage strong emotions. She keeps explanations straightforward and tailors steps to each person’s pace.
Humor and positivity are used when helpful, and she can be more direct when clarity and processing are needed. Clients can expect conversational, goal-oriented sessions that balance insight with practical tools. Suzanna aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can talk through stress, relationship struggles, grief, parenting challenges, mood concerns, or questions about identity and life purpose.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process and works alongside people as they try new strategies. Her practice accommodates different formats so people can choose what fits their life. Prospective clients are invited to ask questions about methods and how sessions are structured before starting work together.

Online support
Online approaches that fit your life
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change patterns of thought that worsen anxiety or low mood, using practical exercises and step-by-step skills. Solution-Focused Therapy is offered for people who want shorter-term work with clear goals and simple strategies to move forward. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events affect daily life, focusing on identifying triggers and learning ways to manage strong emotions.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist discusses your needs, goals, and preferences and then recommends a path forward. Sessions can shift methods over time as progress and priorities change, so clients are involved in choosing what feels most useful.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video works well for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat gives a quick way to check in, and messaging supports short, ongoing work between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy days while still getting consistent support.
