About Us
Susan McCarty McCormick. M.S. Founder
Wellness Coach
Resident in Marriage & Family Therapy
Susan
is the founder of the South Riding Wellness Connection.
She received both her Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy
along with her Bachelors Degree in Business from Virginia Tech. Susan
spent the first part of her career in business, primarily focusing on
sales and marketing efforts for technology companies. In 2002, she
made a career change into therapy after dealing with the death of her
husband. For her, therapy provided the opportunity to not only grieve,
but to learn to live the life she had always wanted to live. Therapy alone, however, was not the answer. She
learned that exercise, eating healthy, and staying connected
spiritually enabled her to get well faster. It was from this
experience that the idea for a wellness center was formed. Susan
describes wellness as a three legged chair - without one of the legs,
it's difficult to maintain balance. By uncovering the connection between your mind,
body, and spirit, you can uncover countless opportunities for sustained
positive change.
Susan has assembled a team of colleagues who all support this preventative approach to wellness by focusing on lifestyle changes and self care. Our
people are among the most talented in the industry. It would be our
pleasure to put our extensive experience to work for you.
