While everyone experiences these feelings from time to time, if they are continuous or if they unreasonably interfere with the quality of your life, then maybe it’s time to make a change ... Maybe it's time to consult with me. Please let me help you.

- Adjust to transitions and life changes related to career, relocation, empty nest, medical illness, birth of a child or becoming stepparents;

Q. What is your style as a psychotherapist and counselor?
A. I have an interactive, involved style with all of my clients. I do not just sit back and nod, “stroke my beard”, or merely ask, “How does that make you feel?” I have received much feedback through the years from many satisfied clients as to how present I was and how important that was to them. I don’t believe in the detached approach. That only makes people feel judged and alone. How could that possibly help? In addition to challenging my clients to think, learn and grow, I continually share my thoughts, insights and words of wisdom.
Read what this counseling client has to say:
“Susan Costello is the kind of psychotherapist that makes you feel comfortable from the first phone call. In fact, she was chosen from the tone she portrays on her voice mail. I have seen her over the few years off and on, alone and with a partner. I can go for years without talking to her, and pickup from where we left off without hesitation. After attending psychotherapy periodically throughout my life, Susan is the first psychotherapist to make me feel this comfortable. After all, I must like her...I travel all the way to Sherborn to see her. I would, and have, recommend her to anyone.”
