Susan Wildemann, LCSW

Susan Wildemann is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 33 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and parenting stress.

Susan favors direct, interactive sessions. She uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to address thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices are introduced to reduce stress and improve sleep. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing patterns that affect relationships.

Sessions tend to focus on concrete goals. That may include communication skills for discussing difficult topics, strategies for coping with grief, or steps to manage anger and overwhelm. For people facing trauma, Susan integrates trauma-informed techniques aimed at reducing distress and increasing safety in day-to-day life.

She has worked in clinical settings across New York and brings long-term experience with people experiencing serious medical, cognitive, or caregiving challenges. Her style is interactive and respectful, with an emphasis on practical changes that fit everyday life.
