Teens Lead the Way

Teens are given a safe space to chat about things on their minds, whether school, identity, life stressors, or anything else important to them, and are moderated by a mental health professional who can offer additional emotional support. All personal information is confidential.

This program is for teens who want support and are willing to support each other and engage with the group.

Susan Talbott, LPC, NCC

Clinical Mental Health Counselor

Hi, my name is Susan Talbott! I’m excited to start on a new series with you! I’m a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Reston, Virginia. I have a Masters in Clinical Mental Health from Messiah University. I returned to graduate school following a career as a secondary school administrator in which I saw first hand the mental health needs of adolescents in our area. Personally, I was raised in Northern Virginia, and so I’m familiar with the opportunities and stressors unique to our community. My husband and I are the proud parents of two young adults. And for fun, I love literature, art, history and spending time with family and friends, including my dear 10-year-old whippet.
