She comes up with many solutions and listens very well. She doesn’t make me feel rushed and seems like she really cares. She has great examples for things to help me understand

Susan is incredibly easy to talk to. She listens and understands my concerns and provides solution focused approaches to helping me move forward. I feel better after just a couple sessions

She makes me feel comfortable, and is easy to be open and honest with. Talking to her is like talking with a friend who has good advice.

Susan Parfrey is a wonderful person to talk to; as a therapist, she's great at helping me work through my problems & making suggestions as she thinks appropriate. She's also really good at being able to tell when I just need to get something off my chest before she says or does anything to help me. She's also very understanding and compassionate while remaining objective; she also does an excellent job of being supportive but knowing when to tell me that MAYBE this or that thing might be a better thing to say or do when dealing w/ a stressful situation. I'd definitely recommend her to another person.

Susan Parfrey is such an experienced therapist.. She listens attentively and gives great feedback on my concerns and issues. I have taken her suggestions and used them in situations and have seen great results. Susan isnt judgemental , I recommend her services , as at times I feel like as I'm talking to an old friend, because I identify with her personal experiences as she uses real life situations to let me know that I'm not alone and what I am experiencing is perfectly normal...I love that about our conversations....
