Christian Adoption Consultants - Any feedback?

DH and I are researching the route we want to take for DIA. I really think we are going to use an adoption consultant. In my online research and briefly connecting with APs, I have had people call out Karalee and Tracie specifically at CAC as wonderful consultants. I called CAC this morning leaning toward Tracie, but ended up having a lovely conversation with Susan, and could easily see ourselves working with her. I am wondering if anyone has experience with Susan and/or any other consultants at CAC and could give me their feedback. I know that much of our DIA research is about information, but part of it is "gut feeling" and I just have a great gut feeling about CAC. Looking for your thoughts! Thanks for helping this DIA newb out! :)
