She was a logical lifeline in a hectic storm

Suzanne continues to support me. She is always kind & respectful., although I realize she must have a huge amount of clients she serves, she always makes me feel as if I’m her only client at any given time. She has helped me to reframe thoughts and actions in a positive and challenging way. She is so knowledgeable and professional. I am very grateful for our relationship.

The previous therapists I had made me feel like they didn't listen to me and they made me feel like I was a burden almost. I really appreciate that Suzanne listens to me and goes through practices with me and makes me feel both seen and heard. She is more than exceptional therapist she is the BEST at what she does and I really appreciate her for the continuous work she does for me.
