"I began working with Susan when she was providing temporary coverage for another counselor. I connected with her approach and chose to continue working with her afterward. Over several years of care, I received support in navigating depression, significant grief and loss, and ongoing anxiety.
Her style is direct and honest, which was exactly what I needed at the time. She is personable, engaged, and highly skilled in her work. I would recommend her to others who are looking for a therapist who is both supportive and direct in her approach."
"I began seeing Susan when I was going through significant personal and family-related stress. I had limited prior experience with therapy, so I wasn’t sure what to expect at first. From the beginning, Susan was attentive and engaged in helping me work through what I was experiencing.
She asks thoughtful and challenging questions in a way that encourages reflection rather than avoidance. She is supportive while also being direct, and she treats clients with respect and care.
Over time, she has continued to help me better understand myself and my patterns. Each session has contributed to greater self-awareness and personal growth. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who is both supportive and willing to gently challenge them in the process of change."
"Susan has been instrumental in helping me process and work through multiple layers of crisis and long-term challenges over time. She listens in a way that helps clarify strengths and supports a sense of identity and growth.
She is an excellent listener and consistently communicates belief in her clients’ ability to move forward and heal. Her support has also extended positively to family relationships, and that support has been deeply appreciated."
"Over time, I have worked with several therapists, and Susan stands out among them. I began working with her during a very difficult period in my life, and she met me with honesty, compassion, and respect.
She has a strong ability to hold space for clients exactly where they are, without pressure or judgment, while also maintaining a grounded belief that change is possible. Her approach balances patience with encouragement and a steady focus on growth and forward movement.
This combination of support and challenge has helped me build greater self-understanding and resilience. Looking back, what once felt overwhelming now feels more manageable and further in the past than it once did."
"Susan is compassionate, grounded, and has a direct, practical approach that avoids unnecessary “fluff.” Therapy feels like having someone genuinely in your corner—someone who listens closely and helps you make sense of what you’re experiencing.
Sessions have been accessible and consistent, and the overall experience has been supportive while still focused on meaningful progress. For those looking for a therapist who is both supportive and practical, this has been a very positive experience."
