Sue is fantastic and I highly recomend her. After knowing her for many years and having wonderful personal experiences with her kinesiology, I recently took my 5 month old daughter to see her. Sue used me as a surrogate, while my girl happily played in the waiting room with her nana. My daughter was incredibly (and unusually) calm during the appointment, immediately afterwards and in the following days. Sue was able to alleviate a fear that she had of falling asleep - she would scream hysterically whenever she woke or when she was taken close to her bedroom to nap or sleep at night! Getting her to sleep any time/any where, was a painful battle. Sue was incredibly compassionate and understanding throughout the session and I was very comfortable.
