Thank you so much for the work you do, Suze. You provided clarity and opportunity for growth and a safety for me in a time when none of those things seemed real or possible for me. You blew the bad experiences I had had with psychologists out of the water. You were a voice of clarity and authority when I couldn't rely on myself to process things. You have been the most rational, personable, kind, organized, and caring health professional I have ever dealt with and my experience with you gives me hope that if life ever throws me curveballs like it did in 2020, I'll know that I will be able to seek help. I just wanted to say thank you, I wish you and your practice the best and hope you, your family, and your cats are thriving - or at least getting by because you've taught me that sometimes that's more than enough.

I can say without hesitation that Suze is literally one of the best in the business. She’s a Consultant Clinical Psychologist and has been working in Wellington for the past 20 years with adults and older adolescents experiencing mental health issues. She’s worked in the areas of general mental health, private practice, personality disorders, suicide prevention, and forensic psychology. Suze has clinical experience with a wide range of mental health difficulties including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, personality disorders, trauma and grief issues, relationship and stress management, and a wide range of behavioural issues. She uses a range of evidence-based therapy techniques. She’s a highly skilled clinician and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

It was with good fortune that, after many years of struggling with some personal issues and obtaining neither understanding, nor the tools with which to overcome those issues, I was recommended to seek the services of Suze Malcolm. Suze’s ability to understand and articulate the nature of those issues to me, her skill of placing those things in the light of reality by using simple and relatable language, supported by inciteful diagrams, to say nothing of her firm understanding of psychology, have achieved in me an ability to change old thought patterns, become more emotionally stable and a far happier and balanced person. Thank you Suze.

Suze has been super helpful for my son who has ADHD. She has tailored her therapy to his needs and given him stability in dark moments - her mix of compassion, values and skills have been awesome!

I love your work Suze! I consistently hear fabulous things about you from clients of yours that come to the Waves programme. It’s also great being able to confidently refer people your way, knowing they’ll be in such good hands.

It's been so helpful working with you, and a pleasure getting to know you. Your ability to help people unlock their potential and joy in life has made a profound change for me.

Lou (Client)

Suze is a beautiful, kind natured, and empathic person who took great care in how she approached our therapy sessions. I always looked forward to our talks. She went above and beyond, even outside of session times when I needed someone to talk to then and there. This being my first time in therapy I was apprehensive and very nervous to share certain things with a stranger but from our very first session it was like talking to a close friend, placing all judgement aside, I felt like I could talk to her about anything and she would understand.

Clara (Client)

I started seeing Suze when I was at a low point in my life. I was very unhappy, but I didn't know why, and my GP said that I needed to "talk to somebody". Suze helped me to see that I could make significant changes to my life, and that those changes were not a sign of failure, but actually an act of great courage.

Cindy (Client)

Suze is one of the best psychologists I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She is friendly and insightful, supportive and challenging in all the right ways. Whether I am feeling good; and we are doing a session on future proofing myself with positive mental health techniques and best practices, or we are dealing with a recent trauma and mental anguish, Suze always helps me find insights, gives me a sense of hope, and always treats me, my thoughts and my feelings with the utmost respect. She holds me accountable with kindness and empathy, and even after working with her longer term she continues to encourage me to question my own perceptions, emotions and actions. She always helps me find the best version of myself, and I feel very privileged and lucky to work with her.

Pippa (Client)

For a long time I had thought that personal connection was helpful, if not important, in relationships with healthcare providers. I don't recall hearing anyone acknowledge this until my first appointment with Suze. At that moment I was confident that I had found the right person to work with. I was referred to Suze to help navigate a period of depression and anxiety. Although many people struggle with similar issues, I always felt that I was being treated as a unique individual and knew that she really cared about me. Along with being incredibly knowledgeable, Suze is relatable, compassionate and engaging. She provides a safe and comfortable environment from which I always left feeling more hopeful than when I arrived. I feel grateful that Suze has been a part of my journey.

Leigh (Client)

Suze’s support after the sudden, devastating death of my son has been invaluable.

My husband and I struggled in the depths of our despair, but on very different paths.

Suze’s honesty, empathy and genuine compassion has allowed us both to process and navigate our grief in a comforting, safe space, in our own time.

Being present with someone who understands and wades through the grief with you, has been life changing for both of us.

There’s no end to this loss only a learned way to stay afloat,

thank you Suze
