Danuta Olson-Schuessler, LCPC

Danuta was wonderful for the first two years, but in the past six months she's told me about her issues with her family, other clients and politics. She also goes on and on about her New Age spiritualism. I have very real and ongoing issues and trauma, including traumatic brain injury from domestic violence. I've been hospitalized four times over 20 years for self-harm, but two were in the last six months, and we never spoke about the last time. She began the session after that by sharing a YouTube video about what talking to her family feels like. I ultimately felt like I was managing her anxieties, and resulted in me feeling the need to mask and show her a happy face. It became draining, and I felt resentful and angry. Finally, she didn't make a call we had agreed on when I was reasonably frightened for my safety, and instead texted me some YouTube thing that read 'Feel the love inside and around you.' I would not recommend her at this time.

Danuta is the most amazing therapist in the world. I’ve seen so many therapists in the past 23 years of my life but not one of them was as skilled and knowledgeable as Danuta. She is an expert in mental health and really knows how to relate to someone and connect with them on a personal level, to help them deal with the darkest times of their life. I’ve never met such a warm, kind, caring and supportive person in my life before. She understands what I’m going through and why and is always there for me, always willing to help. She is such a sweet, kindhearted, generous and just all around beautiful person with a heart of gold. I highly recommend her to everyone seeking relief from their problems and I thank her for being such a genuine and wonderful human being.

She is nonjudgmental and compassionate.
