I went in seeing Susan as my first ever therapist, and as someone who's always sort of dreaded that experience she sure as heck made it a comfortable experience. I'm almost speechless at how great of a time I guess she's made therapy for me. Bonus points, she's a great conversationalist too, if that helps you ease into the process!
