About twelve years ago when I was living on Maui, Dr. Frieder was the only therapist that I could really relate to. I had seen some other psychologists and psychiatrists but Dr. Frieder seemed to quickly and compassionately, tune into my then troubled mind. When I think about it, she was incredibly skilled at facilitating my own discovery of the answers I needed. Things progressed seemingly quickly with Doc Frieder, I think that was because I was able to trust her. Susan Frieder is just one of those kinds of people. I could say a great deal about how much she helped me and why, but the important thing is that I learned how to recognize and deal with my problems in a confident and healthy way. To this day, I use the techniques for self healing that Dr. Frieder directed me to discover.
