About me
My name is Sue Rafferty and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in working with adults and senior citizens who struggle with grief, loss, and life transitions. I worked as a hospice bereavement coordinator for over 20 years, helping people navigate life challenges due to grief and loss, including processing both recent losses and the impact of earlier loss and trauma. I have deep understanding of grief from professional training and personal losses through death and divorce, including early mother loss.
I am committed to providing acceptance, compassion, and a safe space for my clients to explore their feelings, build coping skills, and regain control using person-centered care, grief therapy, and a psychoeducational approach. I encourage creativity and journaling as part of the healing process. Spirituality and biblical principles can be incorporated by request; I support people of all faith and non-faith backgrounds. I learn from my clients and work to educate myself in what is needed to be of help. I will tailor my counseling approach to your specific needs. I understand how challenging it can be to take the first step towards healing. I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable sharing and being vulnerable, while also feeling secure. It has been a privilege to walk alongside people who are hurting and help them find comfort and relief through support and education. Together, we will work towards healing, personal growth, and lasting change.
