I've been with Susan for a number months trust her opinion. I've been in therapy before. It has never really been successful. I'm glad that I was paired up with her

Susan is very good and patient. She listens and takes my needs into consideration at every session.

Susan has been a very big help. After only a few sessions, I am beginning to feel more like the person I wanted to be again. She is thoughtful, understanding, asks good questions, and recognizes her clients are people too.
