Sue Ann Is my therapist I recommend her to anyone that is looking for a person to really hear you and listen. She’s not at all judgmental and does not sugarcoat anything I came to Sue Ann for a domestic violence situation that happened between my husband and I I was scared, frightened, overwhelmed. I’ve been coming to see her for three months almost and I can’t even begin to tell you how she helped me change my life around. I can smile in my mirror, get out of my bed. I started mixed martial arts and I attend 3 to 4 times a week along with five different classes I’m learning to set boundaries with my mother and most of all my husband. If it wasn’t for her, I don’t think I would’ve ever been able to come back to the Charlene that I am. I use all of her tools on a daily basis and the best part is every visit there’s more to come Along with books to keep you focused until next week.
