Susan J. Rowland, PhD, RN Susan J. Rowland is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Registered Nurse in Ohio who has been practicing since 2008. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the Ohio State University in 1985 and enjoyed a 30-year career in Oncology and Intensive Care in Cincinnati, Ohio. She received her Master of Arts in Psychology from Xavier University in 1997 and completed her PhD in Clinical Psychology from The Union Institute and University in 2007 with a major area of study in cognitive behavior therapy, psycho-oncology, and thanatology. Susan believes that everyone has a different story that is relatable in some way. Her goal is to understand an individual's mental, emotional, and spiritual needs (spiritual if desired) that influence their particular challenges and partner with them to develop a unique treatment plan that will get them on their way to increased self-directed living. It is important to Susan that her patients define their own goals for finding meaning and purpose in their lives. Her job is then to blend evidence-based practices like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) with psychoeducation to help them achieve their treatment plan goals.
