I remember i went back here in about 2017 after i had a drug induced psychotic episode from my adhd medication. I told her about the content of my psychotic episode and she burst out laughing in my face, on the first session. She apologised but continued to laugh. I have always remembered that moment, and it was a terribly incompetent and hurtful thing to do as a psychologist.

I am a psychotherapist myself and I have been seeing Zsuzsa for almost two years. Everyone connects differently and for me, Zsuzsa is an excellent match and inspiring psychologist. She helped me transition through a difficult period. If you are serious about change and are willing to put in the effort to change, then Zsuzsa Barta is more than capable and experienced to bring about that change. She is an excellent guide and mentor. She is an experienced psychologist who wont make rookie mistakes or waste your time.

It was a family therapy... Nothing was resolved. Not even close. Total painful waste of time. And it is way overpriced. Some people are just good at making a presentable image and that's all. Don't get ripped off, don't get even more stress than you already have. Find someone decent.

I'm going back over 30 years... back in the day. I was working with Szusza at Long Bay Gaol. She was learning about NLP ( Neurolinguistic Programming ). I told her that couldn't manage to swim more than about 100 metres, due to my fears. Szusza invited me to have a few sessions of NLP with her, in our lunch hour. A few weeks later I swam the length of Yarra Bay - close to a kilometre. It seemed like a miracle. And she's gorgeous.
