Susan Winston is a television producer turned psychotherapist who, tiring of driving those annoying Los Angeles freeways, has moved to the Berkshires full-time and opened her private practice in Great Barrington. She specializes in work with those facing high stress, anxiety, depression, emotional reactivity, bipolar diagnosis, continued addiction recovery and more. Her motto is SHIFT HAPPENS. (Yes, sometimes she drops the ‘F”). She joins her clients in riding the tidal wave of change through heart and humor.
