Meet Susan Peach, a family-loving, creative and generally positive person that loves seeing people enjoy their lives in the best ways possible. Facilitating that process is deeply satisfying for her, and almost daily leaves her thinking she has the best job in the world.
Susan’s credentials include licensure (LPC) in the state of Colorado and national board certification (NCC). Specialty training includes creative arts therapy and being an EMDR trained therapist. She holds specialty certifications in traumatic stress studies, integrative medicine (complementary and alternative medicine) and Telemental Health. Ongoing learning and continuing education is important to Susan so she is always reading, researching and studying. She is passionate about being the best ally she can be for humans and all forms of life, and is passionate about making a difference, one person at a time. You’ll find her to be a good listener, supportive, innovative, and goal directed. Susan practiced as a music therapist and outpatient psychologist for nearly 10 years at High Plains Mental Health Center in Hays, Kansas with contributions to inpatient, partial hospital, outpatient and community consultation and education. After moving to Colorado, she updated licensure and credentials and began private practice in 2006 on North Academy Blvd. in Colorado Springs. She maintained a solo practice at that location for seven years. In 2013 Susan began Life Solutions Counseling and Consulting PLLC, on Centennial Blvd. in Colorado Springs. Since cancer treatment in 2019 and the necessary pandemic practice changes in 2020, she has downsized her business to be a solo endeavor once again and stayed with telehealth exclusively. Happily, the cancer is in complete remission and Susan is healthier than ever. She intends to keep practicing for the foreseeable future. When she’s not working, Susan enjoys the arts, gardening, bicycling, hiking and being in nature, as well as sharing food and laughter with family and friends. She likes to follow KU Jayhawks, UW Badgers, Colorado Springs Thunder professional inline hockey, and Pittsburgh Penguins professional ice hockey. Susan’s very proud of her family — her three sons and their partners, and her two incredibly perfect grand children. She lives and operates home offices both east of Black Forest CO and at her lake cabin south of Madison WI, with her husband, dog, birds, and enough dirt to grow some gardens.
