First day and i think it went well. She let me talk and she listened. Not afraid to ask the tough questions. Even laughed at some of my jokes. Will go back again

While I ended up not pursuing therapy as a long-term route, my short-time working with Susan was excellent! She is very compassionate and a soothing presence. I would highly recommend :)
