She is very amazing and pays attention to the smallest of details. Willing to work with you but also makes sure you make progress in your healing journey. Very compassionate and honest. I am so glad I have found her and probably going to work with her for a very long time.

Amazing therapist. Especially considering the fact that I never considered therapy for a long time, having a therapist like Susan really has helped me and I will continue going to her for the forseeable future!

Susan listens and pays excellent attention. She goes above and beyond to make sure that I am understanding the concepts she is helping me understand and she spends a great deal of time making sure that she understands where my head is at. She reaches out between sessions and reads all of my journal entries, gives great homework assignments, and I feel she genuinely cares about how I am doing on a daily basis.
