| Always a skeptic about therapy, I began seeing Sue Waldman while my mother was very sick and in the process of dying. I was referred by a good friend who had also seen Sue. My mother dying was and is the most terrible loss I had ever felt. Sue made me stay true to myself throughout the grieving process. I feel I was able to find my inner strength when I need it and my inner little girl when she needed me. It still hurts unbelievably, but I know I am o.k. and will be able to live a wonderful life. I continue to see Sue because I feel I am stronger and very willing to keep learning about myself and understand how wonderful I can be. The "Awaken the Goddess Within" Workshop was a delightful experience that has added to the whole process I am going through. I really enjoyed it and the topics were amazing!" C.R. |
| "I have grown leaps and bounds since working with Sue. When I first met her, I was a shell of myself and my life was plagued with depression. I've learned to take my life back with Sue's support and guidance. Sue is a truly special person. She leads by example and her open mindedness, positive energy, and wisdom have helped me finally believe in myself and achieve a sense of peace and awareness I didn't know I was capable of. The workshop I attended was a very helpful and nurturing experience particularly during this transitional period in my life. It was a place that I felt I could check in with myself and get more connected with my spirituality. It helped me cope with all of the changes taking place for me right now. I was pleasantly surprised with how responsive I was to it. Sue helped me find myself and has been an integral part of my evolution. Her influence on my life is invaluable and I'm so grateful to have met her. She makes me feel like anything is possible!" N.R- New York, NY |
| I consider working with Sue a gift. When I began seeing Sue, I was stuck and I desperately wanted to change my life. With Sue's guidance and support, I began to learn how to change my thinking which had a direct effect on my behavior and as a result, I made concrete changes in my life. In the past, I had begun the process of changing my life many times before, but would always get stuck; working with Sue really gave me the direction, support, and guidance that I needed to make some permanent changes and to move to a new place in my life. Sue is simply terrific and I would recommend her to everyone I know. D.E.Virginia |
| There were times when I couldn't see the end, couldn't foresee the days when I would stop crying, but just like the sun on a cloudy day, I knew if I believed in it enough it would happen, I always knew it was there and it would eventually poke its head through the haze....And that's not to say I still don't grieve, I do. It's a long journey, one without a finish line. There is no goal line, you never cross the plane, score the winning goal and do your toughdown dance, but as long as I believe in myself, I know I'm getting better everyday.In fact, wait, there it is. My muscles twitched, cheeks flexed, lips parted and a smile spread across my face. A smile I put there myself. M.G Montclair, NJ |
| I think what influenced me the most from the workshop, "Becoming Who You Really Are" was the realization that the barriers I had set up around myself were unreal, of my own making, shadow projections. I think it is also hard to accept my individuality as a gift. Now, instead of trying to pretend that I am only one type of person or feeling pressure to conform, I am more comfortable with pursuing all my dreams, even though there are many of them. I think the change has to do with looking at my life over time and valuing the choices I have made. Letting go of fear and self-disrespect is a difficult habit. Sue's guidance made it clear, like shining a light into dreams you only have at night, and seeing how beautiful and possible they are. It is just a matter of choice!" K.Y- Brooklyn, NY |

| Sue has been a tremendous help to me. Because of her, I have been able to accomplish many of my life goals. Her incredible warm spirit makes it easy for me to talk with her and anyone who comes into contact with her is incredibly lucky and blessed. I loved "Awaken The Goddess Within" workshop. I learned so much and I am so glad I was able to find my goddess within. I look forward to continuing my journey with her." H.S- West Orange, NJ |
| Prior to coaching, I had become somewhat pessimistic and "blah" with my personal & professional life. I had put my dreams on the back burner and thought that the security of my management job was more important than my happiness. My first coaching sessions really opened me up and helped me to dust off the dreams that I'd always had of working with people in creative ways, instead of just working with products that do nothing to me. The sessions also helped me to move beyond the sadness and discouragement that I was carrying from a relationship breakup. With the clarity and support I got from being coached, I had the courage to start my own business. Within a few weeks, I have started working for myself and have been generating clients, managing my new projects and still have time for personal activities, like exercise, mediation and wellness workshops. Sue has played a tremendous role in my life. K.C. South Orange, NJ |
| Sue has played such a catalyst in my awakening and I am so grateful. She has such a sweet embrace that she consistently wrapped me during our sessions. Her gentle guidance without opinion, her having me seek the answers within without preaching to me, and her non- judgmental nature yet wise discernment allowed me to spiritually ripen to hear that I am love. Welcomed and accepted are understatements for what I felt in Sue’s office. This was the place where I was not judged, where I was not given any advice and where I certainly never felt afraid to open up. It takes a well-trained dancer to perform what looks easy on stage, and Sue held her therapeutic-role with the most exquisite poise and delicate pointing to what I was not comfortable in facing within myself, but I knew it was necessary and I was totally willing. The saying is true, ‘When the student is ready, the teacher appears.’ Held in an ocean of her support and encouragement, I was able to meet what I had been running from and what I later saw as the reason for all my suffering M.

| i wanted to tell you how good i've felt since i left your office yesterday. for whatever reason, i miraculously have been able to let go of the anxiety and fear that's been plaguing me for the past couple months. it's kind of remarkable. i prayed last night and instead of starting out how i usually do, "dear god, thank you for everything, but please please help me...", i said, "dear god, i finally see you again." it felt amazing to actually feel that and not just wish i felt it. i slept through the night without waking up in the middle of it to start obsessing and never fall back asleep. for the past 24 hours, i didn't get that horrible feeling in my stomach at the very thought of some things and i haven't felt so afraid. i actually feel kind of confident and normal again, even happy and thankful, for the first time in a long time. i don't really know how this happened and i know that it's only been a day, but i just wanted to tell you about it because it's the first reprieve from dire misery that i've felt in so long. i also keep reminding myself to choose from love and not fear. i don't want that horrible feeling to ever come back again!!! i will be ok. more than ok. thank you.
