Susan has been wonderful. I can’t accurately describe how much she has helped me in just two sessions. I’ve had therapists in the past, but haven’t related as well with them as I do Susan.

Susan is professional & knowledgeable therapist. I spoke with several therapists before meeting Susan. Susan is a perfect fit for me. Susan gives me the resources I need to help myself.. Each time I speak with Susan, I feel as though I’m in a much better place! Susan listens and understands me. Susan’s expertise and caring are essential qualities in a therapist.
I highly recommend Susan.

In my first meeting there was a discrepancy in the app over the time and Susan adjusted to meet my schedule. Susan is knowledgeable, not judgmental, and has created a safe space for me. I’m eager to speak with her every week.
